Clear skies temp -3.1C with light easterly. Min -4.1C, G.M. -7. I see at Benson the min was -6.8C with G.M. -11C.

A pretty cold start (coldest of the winter) though not much frost visible due to the drier than normal air. A breeze was blowing for much of the night too which made it more penetrating than a normal frost at this temperature, though it would have dropped far lower without the breeze. Clear and far less hazy than yesterday.

I think the thermometers on buildings are struggling with the cold air and brisk winds. Driving over the M4 elevated section at around 7.45 this, morning, the first thermometer reported -9oC. I chuckled quietly to myself thinking it was ridiculously low and probably around -4oC is reality. Then I crawled past the Lucozade thermometer (still there after all these years) and that reported -15oC. I don't think they will be accepted as official reporting stations any time soon. Having said that, neither would my car which was insistent that the temperature was no lower than -1oC for the entire journey from Reading.

A very nice graphic Jean, thanks. Just illustrates how the UK is protected from the real cold by the North Sea in this sort of airflow. I take it you are expecting an ice day in Paris today? I imagine it must feel very bitter on the continent this morning with temperatures well below zero and a keen easterly wind. Even Stuttgart which is quite far west in Germany is at -10C at the moment.
