Mike Silverstone is a Deputy Chief Meteorologist at the Met Office. He said: “Higher temperatures building over the weekend and into early next week will bring particularly warm, hot or even very hot conditions for some, especially in the southeast and East Anglia and more locally elsewhere

frosts. On 15 December South Newington recorded a minimum of -11.1°C and temperatures across many areas fell widely to -5 to -10°C, including in London, with -7.6°C at Kew Gardens. Coastal areas also recorded some very hard frosts with -9.4C at Pembrey Sands (Carmarthenshire) on 16th. Many stations
