Minus 6.2¬?C here at the moment, which equals the coldest recorded by the weather station since it started recording in December 2005.

I know it isn't as cold as inland, but its pretty cold for the coast. Previous coldest day was Jan 9th 2009 where it also reached minus 6.2¬?C.

-6.5 was the lowest it got to. I've been checking some other stats from various weather stations too. Some places inland got to around -9 or -10, those higher up dropped to -12 in the early hours of the morning. I think Sennybridge in the Brecon beacons was the coldest place in Wales with a low of -15¬?C... Not even close to the record for Wales though of -23.3¬?C in Rhayader back in 1940... Now that is cold!
