The big freeze

Crank the heating up: tonight's set to be another chilly one.

Experts say temperatures dropped as low as 14F (-10C) in parts of Scotland last night and that tonight even parts of the normally balmy south could see similarly low temperatures.

The Met Office issued a severe weather warning for London and east and south-east England this morning.

The Arctic conditions have prompted bookies William Hill to offer odds of 8-1 that people will be able to skate on the Serpentine in London by the middle of January.

Meteorologists, meanwhile, says the cold snap could be with us until the weekend.

Probate weather, as an aunty of mine's always calls it.
