After being reminded about this a couple of weeks ago I decided to have a look at the stats back to 1806 and see what the results are.

If there is a run of cold days (3.3C or less) around mid-month the chance of an average to colder than average January and February is 94% and 74% respectively. The chance of an average to colder than average March is 96%. Also notable is that the chance of a severe spell in January (4C colder than normal) is 30%.

See how things run in the years where super-quakes occur will you, please?

I am pretty sure that if this winter has the snow threatened by some that later in the year we will have another visitation from the angel of death. Presumably these things will become more and more frequent until we all wake up.
