Arctic conditions are due to hit Scotland in particular this week, as temperatures plummet to below zero.
...................... :yeahthat: comes after the "mildest" (and wettest :raining:) December on record.
Met Office predictions suggest that - as the week progresses - a :freezin: band of snow, frost and ice will also affect various other parts of the country.
So ... follow the Boy Scout motto ... be prepared!

It feels colder down South too Arthur, and I must be nearly as far South as possible, (I think Cornwall might be the farthest South) I have older night storage heaters in my flat and you need to turn them up in good time, I did last night.
Cant have my Charlie (dog) going cold.:NoNo:

:iagree:, Mick ... it's much healthier - and more seasonal - than that constant damp weather we've had to put up with of late.

:olddude: ... clearly :icon_rolleyes: ... anyone who thinks the present conditions are exceptional, hasn't lived through the severe winters of 1947, most of the 1950s and the early 1960s. :NoNo:
:nono-1-1: ... mind you ... :anerikke: ... back then, there were a lot less private car users on icebound roads - where the majority of the associated hazards lurk nowadays!
