So for this unusually cold spell of weather, I thought it would be interesting to keep track of low temperatures both by day and night. Opportunity for some sub -5C nights, and Thursday has a chance of being an ice day (wouldn't that be something). Personally I'm going to record here the minimaxes and minimins for official stations in the UK each day.

Tulloch Bridge had an (hourly) overnight minimum of -4.9°C last night.

Edit: Its absolute minimum last night I believe was -5.3°C

Minimum 2.6c at 06:13 Totally unofficial but mine...

For clarity this thread is to highlight unusually low maxima and minima for the time of the year. 

so your saying this a regional thread that is excluding some from it?? Well 11C is a good 3C below average for the time of year... Or are we being biased here 😋

No I am saying this is a thread for reporting unusually low temperatures, I would have thought that was obvious. 11°C is not unusually cold (even for the south of England in April) that's all.

We have other threads (the spring thread and current conditions threads)for such reports. It is not a regional thread nor have I even remotely insinuated that it is, you have raised that IMBY approach, please don't. As to your last point, yes perhaps you are.

10C - 11C at the end of April (it's almost May!!!) is notable down in the south & southwest away from the Kentish coastlines. At this late stage of the month 13C - 15C are the typical average temperatures down here in the south. I would have thought 5C - 7C for lowland northern Scotland and coastal North East England were not that unusual though for late April. As for upland areas of northern England & Scotland snow even into early May is surely not unusual?? 

I think a balance of perspective to relative norms is needed here.. ☺️ It's only fair.

Yes that was the point although Q does mention that he started the thread for low daytime maxim too. 

It reached 6°C here today so cool rather than notably cold but I think over coming days there could be some noteworthy temperatures at night, but also possibly by day.

Only 9c as max here today with hail, rain, strong winds and plenty of sun.

Cloudy, and cold, 8c.

Feels colder than yesterday.

Cold feeling for late April, 6c wit showery rain.

Just 3.3 C here atm. 

With lighter winds it's down to 1.8C here before dark, frost seems likely. 6.2C was the max about 2pm

Lowest today Thursday 05:13 down to 0.7c.

-2.1C at 4:30 here
