GFS ensembles certainly have a number of pretty cold runs.

In their 6-30 day outlook issued at 0124 this morning the Met
Office are still
predicting only a brief much colder spell around the middle of next
week with a
return to westerlies and near average temps towards the end of next
week. A
similar setup is then predicted to persist into early February with
temps near
or slightly above average.

And here is what I wrote this morning in my weekly outlook for
Dartmoor http://www.lyneside.demon.co.uk/weeklydiscussions.htm

I suspect the MetO outlook will change soon :-)

N Atlantic SSTs still favour cyclonic westerlies. The pattern is
similar to last winter but displaced further west. Pressure should be
well below normal near Iceland with the Azores high west of its usual
position, somewhere near the Grand Banks say. This doesn't suggest any
long-term spells of weather from the east unless there's an SSW event.
However, the continental high may be close enough at times for brief
easterlies. All in all, mild, windy, wet.
