Snow falls across Victoria are expected to hold off for a few days after a cold snap blanketed the country's southeast's alpine areas.
Snow fell near Lorne and Ballarat on Friday, as Melbourne shivered through one of its coldest June days in 20 years.
On Saturday, Melbourne reached 12.7C by 2.30pm and light rain had been recorded in parts of the metropolitan area.
Black ice on the road was blamed for a crash that killed a woman, 39, and man, 41, after the car they were in left the Midland Highway and hit a tree in Daylesford on Saturday morning.
The weather is also being partly blamed for Collingwood recording its worst MCG crowd in 76 years for their game against Fremantle on Friday night.
