Generally see more high latitude blocking following an SSW event.

Whether the ridges set up in the perfect spots is up in the air but I'd say the odds are in our favour for at least a brush of arctic air mid and/or late month into Feb.

Probably inside a restricted, secure area. In which case, don’t even think about it.
It's called clown range for a reason.

No, +15C and cold rain.

Only 382 COVID cases in the last 24 hours! Tragic number of deaths over the last 5 days though.
