Although it has been colder in other months, including, notably,
March 2001. I wonder how long till this becomes "Scotland's
coldest night for 23 years"?


Isn't "18 years" the span by which we measure everything these days?
It was amazing how London's heaviest snow for 18 years soon became
Britain's heaviest snow for 18 years.


Yes, that was precisely the point of my irony.
