Default 18-20C max UK temp next weekend?

Well, I knew that we'd have no snow here in Swansea this winter. This was
more or less guaranteed as soon as I fitted winter tyres back at the
beginning of December.

So should I swap them back, yet? Winter tyres work best at below 7C.
================================================== =======

Are they 'real' winter tyres or simply all-season tyres (eg Goodyear Vector
4-Seasons)? If the latter then I'd leave them on (I do with mine all year).
Difference in UK summer _dry_ conditions is pretty marginal. In the wet then
they'll still offer significantly shorter braking conditions than most
'summer' tyres.
