"Becoming rather cold with a risk of very cold conditions developing."

Why the chuckle, Neil? Isn't that feasible at this stage - or were you just
pleased to see it?

In days of yore, when the Met Office computers were ECL or TTL rather
than high speed CMOS, forecast expressions such as cold, rather cold,
very cold, mild, exceptionally mild, warm etc were very strictly
defined in terms of the deviation from the seasonal average. This
order was held in the pages of the venerable "Met Office Manual for
Forecasts to the General Public" version 7(i)a (or some-such) and woe
betide any maverick forecaster showing any individuality, using words
or expressions such as "showers pecking at the coast".

The strict definitions are still on the Met Office website, though I
can't remember exactly where.
