        And shitty cheap slumlords. There are a lot of damp and rotting buildings being rented out here and the councils won’t do anything about it.

        Not to mention the constantly increasing numbers of people sleeping rough or who are otherwise homeless and without regular/reliable heating (or housed but too poor to heat) - several hundred of who are unlikely to survive the winter.

    Supposedly a little snow/rain mix forecast here in the Netherlands too. I’ll believe it when I see it though. It’s probably just gonna be cold and rainy.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Parts of the UK are bracing for snow and wintry showers this week as the cold spell continues.

    Tuesday night will bring frost to much of the country, with temperatures of around -2C to -5C, and possibly as low as -8C, across parts of the north of England and rural Scotland, the Met Office said.

    Lead BBC Weather presenter and meteorologist Simon King said: “It’s going to be a cold week with temperatures only around 2 to 7 degrees Celsius - which is below the average for the time of year.”

    Parts of central Scotland woke up to frost on Monday following cold overnight temperatures falling to -6.4C in the village of Tyndrum, according to the Met Office.

    The rain will be heavy at times across Wales and south-west England throughout Monday, before an area of low pressure pulls south-eastwards towards Continental Europe to create brighter spells.

    An area of low pressure moving in from the South West on Thursday could meet colder air, with showers expected across southern England and Wales, turning to snow over higher ground.

    Snow in northern Europe is news?

    Is drought in the desert news worthy too?
