As if Storm Clodagh hasn't blown the heads off us enough - cutting power in approximately 4,000 homes and cancelled flights over the weekend - we've now got an icy blast from the Arctic to deal with. The Independent are stating that overnight temperatures are expected to plummet to -4C in some areas come Thursday, with snow already reportedly streaming down in parts of the North.
