2nd double figure minima here with -10.3c

---

-4.2 which is notably low for our coastal location. No ice days, but it's easily been the coldest spell since 2010.

---

Min last night -7.4c after -9.2c yesterday

---

The lowest it's reached here is -4.4C, the coldest day was yesterday at +0.9C as a maximum.

Not very impressive at all, really, especially compared to the -14.8C recorded here in 2018!

---

-4.4c with the heating broken Down.

---

Chilly -6.8 at 05:30 this morning and currently -5.7. I've not seen temps like this since 2010, lots of icicles and all three ponds in the garden are now frozen and we've still got some of our snow, so quite a remarkable cold spell before Christmas imby don't you think, absolutely nothing at all to moan about not like some on here. There doesn't seem to be a winter moaning thread on the list, maybe there should be, for some. 😉

The lowest temperature for Thurrock was -5°C and it has been years since Thurrock has experienced such low temperatures and I hope it won't be the last.  I have noticed once the temperature 0C and below the air feels very fresh and I can cope with it better than I do when it is mild and wet which feels colder.

---

-7 the low the coldest of the winter so far.❄

Yes friends of mine from countries where it gets much colder in winter than here say there's no cold quite like British 3C and wet cold!

It's because 9-10 in most of the UK the cold comes with calm conditions. Get some wind with the cold and its a different story.
I've not heard the phrase "A penetrating frost" for a long time. 

Yesterday morning, the car thermometer showed -8.5c. Put that down to it having been stationary overnight, but it bobbled between -8c and -8.5c for a while, until I was approaching Manchester.

By 8pm last night, it was -5.5c here.

  Wednesday night  was -9.1

  Last night was -9.2 

  Currently - 0.7c

It's been fascinating watching the UK temperatures fluctuate over the last week or so. Very interesting how minimum temperatures are being recorded frequently around 9am with the sun rising so late this time of year. Of course some 'favoured' locations can continue to get colder as the day progresses - like Altnaharra today. But once the sun is high enough the temperatures can shoot up, like at Woburn yesterday and today. At my local station, Rothamsted, we've got above freezing at 1pm today for the first time since Saturday. 

EDIT: Just noticed that Woburn has finally got above freezing for the first time since last Tuesday (i.e. 10 days ago) if Weatheronline is correct!

Tonight could possibly be the coldest night of this classic cold spell. 
Got to beat -10.5C. Is already-6.8 so if the pesky cloud's and wind can keep away its going to be close. 

The lowest it's reached here is -4.4C, the coldest day was yesterday at +0.9C as a maximum.

Not very impressive at all, really, especially compared to the -14.8C recorded here in 2018!

Nice to see someone else who’s thoroughly unimpressed. 

Down to -6C last night, the coldest since 2018. Also a high of 3.1C, so nothing impressive regarding maxes either. 

A spell of sleet on Sunday morning to look forward to though, I suppose.

---

Pesky patchy cloud has slowly invaded from the west putting an end to beating-10C I fear, temp risen over 2C in the past 90 minutes. 
 

We’ve had a long spell of clear, sub zero nights, including two nights of freezing fog and frost staying all day but no snow.  Thursday morning was our lowest at -7.7c and yesterday morning at -7.2c. 

---

-6c again over thick snow still. What a spell it's been here.
 

---

Still -4.5c at 10.40am. Models have consistently over estimated the temps here all week.
 

---

Probably the last really cold night for a little while down here. Visiting the in-laws in the Test Valley the car was reading -7C before 8pm last night.
