    i think people have different memories of winters depending where in the uk they are in the worst winters its amaziny how places differ.for me these last few winters are more like the 80s but havnt had the volumes of snow and a distinct lack of wind.we used to have real blizzards even 2010 lacked the winds of the 80s 90,95.maybe we are in a custer of colder winters

    all the old farmers say 1947 was worse would have been an experience,an old farmer near said the road wasnt clear to traffic till april 4th and when a ministry of agriculture man came to visit they said they got stuck in snow on the yorks /lancs border at 1400ft on june 3rd.for me 86 the coldest and 79 for snow nothing comes remotely close since

    too young to remember the coldest for me was jan 23 to march 3rd 1986 i lived at 340m and worked at 360metre it was cold but according to met office historic data for bradford(our nearest station)january 1940 was colder and feb 47 coldest also lists coldest daytime highs of anywhere in the uk since 1908!!!!! feb 1947

    just looked on met office for bradford(my nearest) gave 0.7 average high and -4.9 mins the coldest january since 1908 here only feb 47 colder putting jan 63 in third place
