So, if I interpret your double negative correctly, if I think 0F is cold I'm insane ? But I think you meant to say that I'm crazy if I think 0F is not cold. I would tend to agree; it certainly goes beyond merely chilly. To me 0F is definitely cold, but it does not represent bitter cold or brutal cold.

I live just outside central London but our temperature readings are always lower than that. I think they're moderated.

I feel sorry for anyone that has to live Leeds Southwards..

The winters in London are truly awful, they really don't even get a winter. Yes you saw -4c, but um it was like one night and that might be the coldest it gets this winter which is truly awful.

Many areas south of Leeds do well in winter - Sheffield, Buxton, and parts of the Midlands. SE England does rather well for snow too.

Yes it is. 8C is not a spring or autumn temperature and feels cold unless dressed appropriately.

Most areas of SE England have average highs firmly below 8C, some have highs below 7C, and average lows are 0c - 2C generally, especially in frost hollows like Benson and Farnborough.

SE England is prone to snow, they get the most out of easterlies.

SE England is incredibly prone to snow, they get the most out of easterlies.
Farnborough averages 8/1 in the coldest month. Benson averages 7/1. They both average 23/12 in the summer.
