Frost what frost?
 

I may be having a senior moment here, but wasn't the whole of the UK plastered in blue last night on the BBC forecast with a hard frost promised for all rural locations? Or maybe I got that all wrong and that was the forecast for tonight? Anyway the upshot is that last night only 6 out of 159 stations reported an air frost.

Bruce, are you sure you've got all the correct mins? Benson isn't on the
list but it got down to -6 last night, and my min was -5. Anyway, just
noticed you've got mins to 0600 on the 22nd - shouldn't that be mins on
the 24th?
