Strange as it may seem, only 5 winters have been colder than this one
by the looks of it in Coventry, even though the average looks like
being 1.1C above the 30-year climatological normal for 1971-2000.

Just goes to show how cold winters were in the 1970's!

I thought that up until the late 70's winters in that decade
were mild.
