CORRECTION!!
This winter has had 4 air frosts so far.

The rest was all OK.

Only 2 air frosts this winter here.
Milder here than in Cornwall. ;-)

Never had none but only had one in winter 2013-14.
Highly variable but average 15 over the last 30 years.
The most was 39 in winter 2010-11,
closely followed by 37 in winter 1985-86.

Since frosts are closely linked to frosts on Estuary ports, the heat island effect would have been playing havoc with the more recent "Thatchered" stations.
You might be better tracing the numbers of fogs and mists produced by polar air. That is the admixture produced initially by Arctic and Aleutian Lows.

The Rasmussen Minute: The Speech That Got JFK Killed?

In addressing the American Newspaper Publishers Association in 1961, John F.. Kennedy spoke of “a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy” that seeks to rule the world and whose “dissenters are silenced.”

The young president, who would be silenced by an assassin’s bullets two and a half years later, warned, "We are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence--on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day.

“It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations.

“Its preparations are concealed, not published.
Its mistakes are buried, not headlined.
Its dissenters are silenced, not praised.
No expenditure is questioned, no rumor is printed, no secret is revealed."

That speech, and that fateful day in Dallas on November 22, 1963, that saw the 35th president of the United States cut down in broad daylight are the subject of this week's Rasmussen Minute.

The golden rule is treat others as you would wish to be treated but that was a rul given by the mans who said wht they whisper to you in secret, shout from the tops of mountains.
Evidently the informed informant would be subject to niceties not specified here.

You wouldn't bother, for instance, attempting to wake the dawlish among us. One is permitted if not enjoined to use discernment.

For instance the likelihood of tidal waters following the lunar phase denotes no such phenomena about volcanicity yet the periods of stalled weather must have been analysed by now by honest meteorologists. I dare say there are at least a few such good men and true remaining?
It is time for you to come out of the woodwork and into the light.
