After coming across this thread, I think it's time for me to issue a fresh warning of further snow and cold for next week.
I've just caught up on the computer outlook charts now that I'm at home . . . all I can say is . . . blimey, that looks severe.
And it's aimed straight for the South East. If that does come off by this time next week, that'll make the last cold snap seem like a bit of a chilly breeze.
The St Valentine's Freeze Up I've been forecasting for quite a while is just about nailed on.
Bear in mind that the North Sea will be a lot colder than this time a month ago - and the strengthening sun will then serve to produce much more in the way of convective "power" snow showers . Those may bubble up and rattle into the eastern side of the UK.
Of course, it's still alllllll a long way off - won't get to see the first signs of it until after the weekend, but it's definitely one to keep an eye on.
