Is this the same story as October? Remember the terrible weather we were going to have? Oh wait, the warmest October on record....

Temperatures will plunge to -3C (27F) overnight,
can it plunge to that in winter?
Surely plunge would need it to be way below normal
Wow winter will be cold shockerWe will have some hot days in summer

I don't think the Thames has frozen since the early 1800s, and it can't now, due to the fact the Thames bridges have more widely spaced supports, there is no still or slower water to be able to freeze.

It's winter, and cold/snowy weather is 'news'?
Good grief, I live in a really stupid country.

I don't believe that for a minute. Our shores have frozen in the past so why not the Thames (given cold enough weather).Posted 4 months ago # -

Rubbish! It'll freeze if it gets cold enough - but maybe that would never get cold enough here....

And the warm water outflow from Didcot power station should prevent it from freezing.
There are many possible dooms that we may face, a frozen Thames is one of the least.

Here's what the Met Office says:
UK Outlook for Saturday 11 Feb 2012 to Saturday 25 Feb 2012:
Cold weather looks likely during this period, with both daytime maximum and nighttime minimum temperatures likely to be below or well below average in southern areas, and still below average in the north. Rainfall amounts should be around average in northern areas, with some snow at times. Further south rainfall is likely to be above average with some prolonged spells of rain possible, with also a risk of some significant falls of snow. Sunshine amounts will probably be around or slightly above average.

According to WeatherPro (MeteoGroup app), down here in Wilts it's going to be -3 at night and lows of 1-2 during the day next week. Bloody Fimbulwinter! Wargs and the Mara will be stalking the hills, I tell thee!
