THE RIVER THAMES in London froze over for the first time in 60 years as temperatures plummeted overnight. By STEVEN BROWN

BBC Weather: UK set for freezing temperatures and snow

For the first time since 1963, parts of the River Thames were frozen over as witnesses spotted seagulls perching on the icy surface in Teddington. The River Great Ouse in Cambridgeshire was also frozen over leaving boats stuck.

It comes as temperatures dropped to below 0C in parts of England.

In Ravensworth, North Yorkshire, temperatures plummeted to -15.3C last night as the UK braced for up to four inches of snow and 50mph gales today. ----- The freezing weather comes as 15 weather stations in Britain recorded their lowest temperature ever for February overnight on Wednesday.

Yes, I clicked the link? I guess I was asking why you did not just post the picture in the thread. From the headline you posted, it said Picture.

Why all that global warming just went to the Arctic to kill the polar bears and melt the ice cap and pushed all the cold air down. Certainly this climate change is due to four years of Trump (heavy sarcasm).

In Minnesota northern parts of the state experienced -50 temperatures last night. Imagine in Biden’s green utopia where all our heating is electric. How are we to heat our homes when the wind turbines are frozen and the solar cells are useless during the night when it is coldest?
