According to a book I have "The Met Office BBC Weather Watch" by Stephen
Moss and Paul Simons (1992) the lowest temperature was -27.2C (-17F) in
Braemar, Scotland on the 11th February 1895 and the 10th January 1982. It
also mentions that Shawbury in Shropshire came close too.

I also remember the local paper here in Sheffield reported a temperature
of -15C in January 1982. Still the coldest its been here in Sheffield since
then as far as I know.

I wonder just exactly how cold the cold weather that MY DREAMS(!) would
have been during Tom Presutti's "it will be difficult for the
forecaters to predict where the snow will
lie at times" February of 2002?

I am still waiting, Tom. Waiting for my dreams....

This can however by rectified QUITE EASILY - by putting me out of my
wait with just one measly little APOLOGY, STARTING with your February
2002 forecast.

Weather dunce.

I'd suggest the easiest way to rectify things, would be for you to get a
life.
It's only the weather at the end of the day *sigh*
