      What're they at?

      It's -27C here right now.

        That's a bit nippy isn't it. I'm not sure what it's like here but I expect to have fun and games walking home at 7am..

          -10C is a joke. Cold only really starts at -20C.

            This is the UK...we get told to wrap up warm by the Beeb when it's <10c (that's +10c)

              Wow, imagine that. The coldest night in 7 years in the middle of a winter. Hold the presses.

              This reminds me of those dozens of "hurricane alert near my home!" threads made by Che.

                It's quite unusual given the run of record mild synoptics we had in the second half of 2006.

                  This cooling is a sure sign of warming, due to the atlantic conveyer. If I'm a Brit I have my paperwork in to move to Australia or NZ. Beat the rush.

                  If GB were to suddenly plunge into arctic conditions would their cousins in the south pacific take all the people? They would have to take the Canadians too...

                    The conveyor is at no threat of stopping,

                    The cold weather is due to a high pressure block to our north that is dragging down cold air from the Arctic and clear skies overnight. There hasn't been synoptics like this for a good few years.

                      Most predictions I've seen (not that these necessarily correspond to anything near reality) say that Canada will experience some of the greatest rises in temperatures, actually...

                              Bah, silly british whimps. Come back when the temperature hits -30C

                              OTOH, Gothenburg shuts down when the temperature falls below -15C, so I probably shouldn't say anything...
