These words were used earlier on Radio 4 and BBC 1 breakfast TV forecasts
to describe today's expected temperatures of 4-5C and associated winds in
Southern England. I wonder what words would be used to describe conditions
many of us can recall from past winter easterlies.


Complete tripe.

God knows what they would say if we had the 80s style freeze ups again

"Max temps of -6 and gale force easterly winds"

Now that was "bitterly cold"

Anyone remember which year and no it wasn't 87!!!!!!!!
