dbo:abstract
  • The winter of 1962–1963, known as the Big Freeze of 1963, was one of the coldest winters (defined as the months of December, January and February) on record in the United Kingdom. Temperatures plummeted and lakes and rivers began to freeze over. In the Central England Temperature (CET) record extending back to 1659, only the winters of 1683–1684 and 1739–1740 were colder than 1962–1963. The winter of 1962–1963 remains the coldest since at least 1895 in all meteorological districts of the United Kingdom, although in Scotland North the winter of 2009–2010 was equally cold. The winter of 1894–1895 was colder than that of 1962–1963 in Scotland North and Scotland East, whilst although instrumental temperature data for Scotland and Northern Ireland do not extend back to 1740 station data from subsequent years suggest that the winters of 1813–1814 and 1878–1879 were almost certainly colder than 1962–1963 over Scotland and Northern Ireland, and that the winter of 1779–1780 may also have been colder over Scotland.

  • Vintern 1962–1963 var en av de kallaste vintrarna någonsin i Storbritannien. Temperaturerna sjönk, och sjöar och floder började frysa. Räknat efter (CET), som daterar sig tillbaka till 1659, var det bara kallare vintrarna (definierat som december, januari och februari) 1683–84, och 1739–40. Dock var inte vintern lika sträng i Skottland som i England och Wales. Vintern kallas lokalt för The Big Freeze of 1963. (sv)
