-2 lol. A slightly frosty morning is -2
The issue is that the infrastructure is not built for it. Very few are worried that they're going to freeze to death because it's -2 celsius for a few hours (Although it will suck for the unhoused), what people worry is that the power grid will go down and the pipes will freeze.
It's going to be -8F where I live on monday and in case Europeans need to be made aware that's -22C
yeah lower than -5C would be pretty catastrophic in the UK too. Wishing you safety and warmth.
