A barmy 1 or 2 degrees on Plymouth although I’m sure things are different up on Dartmoor. Think we’ve only had 2 light frost so far this winter. Amazed how much warmer winters are down here - I’m still in shorts most of the time 😂

Currently 11, highs of 17.
Probably for the best as central heating and any kind of insulation are extremely rare around these parts.

Albert: Cold, you bits of kid don't know the meaning of the word. You should have been with me on the Russian convoys. One night it was so cold the flame on my lighter froze.

Someone I'm working with today flew back from Chicago a couple of days ago, apparently his legs went numb walking a few hundred metres between hotel and office (suit trousers + thermal long johns on), only to be told pipes had burst in the tower block and they were closing it - he only just made it back to the hotel before his legs gave up :p

Was apparently -3 this morning in North London. It did feel pretty cold, largely because it was still pretty humid

Perfect weather. Was -10ºC when I went to start the car. Down in town much warmer -3ºC.

Bonus is it's nice and dry and a beautiful clear blue sky.

I really can't imagine these temperatures and the effect they'd have on most UK housing stock in terms of people's ability to keep warm and not suffer burst pipes etc.

@wwaswas that map reminds me of a 'song' by Venetian Snares

it's weird at -24c . it's a very 'dry' cold and it usually is completely windstill . As long as ou have the right clothes on its fine actually, but yeah your car breaks down somewhere you are in trouble

At least my Canada goose parka is getting used.
I like the cold, it’s the damp slushy thaw that’s horrible.

Not sure of temps, but it was so cold that I wore my wooly hat to work this morning. I work at home.

Saw a bloke wearing shorts and pushing a pushchair. Should I have alerted Social Services? This was in the shandy-drinking Sarf.

Bloke rides out of my road every morning (bit later than me, so only see him sometimes), was there this morning in shorts. Ok, so one of his legs is prosthetic, but the other one must get flipping cold!

Our postie (not Rich) is always in shorts.

-3.5C according to the car thermometer this morning, -3C now.

@howsyourdad1 - from memory you are in Finland (apologies if not) so you get long periods where it's well below freezing so any moisture in the air has long since gone. We're off to Rovaniemi in a couple of weeks and I've been checking the weather for a while: most of this month has been -24C or thereabouts but it's warmed up to -15C in the last couple of days.

When I was there over the winter the relative humidity was in the 90s the entire time, because the daytime temperature was the same as the nighttime.
