Records low temps to beat
Having beaten the all time daily rainfall record in Cumbria this year,
is the cold snap going to bring any record low temperatures for the
UK? Surely global warming and El Nino won't allow it? And then there
is a lot of hot air in Copenhagen.
Here are the records that need to be broken:
UK
-27.2C Braemar 10 Jan 1992 and 11 Feb 1895
-27.2C Altnaharra 30 Dec 1995.
England
-25.2C Shawbury, Shrops, 13 Dec 1981
-26.1C Newport, Shrops, 10 Jan 1982
Wembury, SW Devon, -10.1C 13 Jan 1987
Better check your lagging.
