Tomorrows temps are forecasted to be 4c - 6C….but yes it’ll feel raw as you mentioned, as stronger winds will make it feel below freezing  

The raw feeling will dissipate early hours of Sunday , it’s been cold for 14 days , less cold on Friday 12th but overall a cold occasionally very cold fortnight !!

 

shame snow was limited to showers and flurries allthough pleased for all that had more

it returns very soon 

[Weather Enthusiast91]

There hasn't been a single flake of snow over here. But we have had the next best thing which is cold, sunny and frosty and is miles better than what we endured thoughout last month.

About time we had Wintry conditions and content to talk about for January…

There maybe signs of a Scandalous Awakening regarding HP building as we go into Feb….. This winter is not finished just yet

Had a little snow last night too @nobble just down the range from you.

In all said, remember the dumping that (was comming) never happened to the mids, then it was South, then nothing happened, Bar France.

Most models forecasting wind gusts in the region of 55mph to 65mph widely across the region on Sunday night, which is rather unusual.

The cold trying to cling on for dear life! 

Feels cold here, especially now the air is damp as opposed to very dry during the week.  Wind getting up too.

Awful. The odd thing about the weather in this country is that it's easily possible that we'll get a 15c day in June, too...bonkers.

Anyway. Enjoyed this couple of weeks of 'normal' winter weather, back to only keeping a watching eye on developments rather than spending perhaps a bit too much time on the forum! One or two more wintry hurrahs before Spring please, and some snow this time too wouldn't go amiss! 

[MattStoke]

Did Parkwalk this morning. Ground is frozen solid. Still patchy snow.
