At the beginning of the week, I caught one of the BBC breakfast presenters on TV saying something about it getting really cold later in the week and mentioned a 'national' paper saying temperatures would drop to -15C! The link then when into the weather slot where the forecaster qualified the statement by explaining that when they said -15C, they probably meant the mountain tops. Now, here we are at Thursday and the weekend temperatures for Northeast England (where I live) are predicted to be around 7-8C and up to 10C for the start of the new week. Did I miss something?
