Winter - the time for snow and frost
In the winter, the temperature can drop below freezing point (32°F/0°C) but rarely drops much below. It is cold, wet and windy and it sometimes snows between December and March. In the mornings we have to scrape the ice from our cars.
The average winter temperature is 38.6°F/3.7°C. Normally, the UK gets 13 inches (332 mm) of rain sleet and snow each winter.
