It seems that this next weeks cold weather for UK is actually pretty minor compared to the impact on the Arctic of the same weather system/cause.

Scary climate change stuff.

Will we see an increase of 45C too.. I hope so.

narks me when they (bbc weather) describe 5 degrees and 10 mph wind as bitterly cold
