If December 2006 is anything to go by:
Date Mn Mx
20 -2.2 4.5
21 -3.2 3.2
22 -0.9 2.9
23 -0.4 3.5
24 3.0 4.5
25 4.5 5.7
26 3.4 5.0
27 3.0 9.7
28 7.2 10.5
29 7.2 12.5
30 7.2 12.5
31 7.7 11.9
The 'cold' spell from the 20th - 26th was the coldest of the entire
winter. The temperatures from the 29th onwards were more typical of the
rest of the winter. So who knows!

Thanks Keith and Nick for your comments; the point I was making about
December last year was that, on the 19th, a High moved up from the
south-west and settled over the country for a few days, but it did not
introduce arctic/ continental air and there wasn't any snow. With clear
skies at night and near enough to the shortest days, there was some frost
and fog, of course. A typical ' phantom cold spell'.
