Capel Curig in North Wales, which is in a mountain valley but is still known more for really high rain totals than for cold pooling, had a record low of -11.7C from when the weather station was set up until December 2010, with ice days relatively few and far between, until one day the temperature was randomly standing at -15C in the middle of the day:



The official high temperature that day was -5.6C, which I imagine was the 11 pm reading. If the wind hadn't picked up late in the evening it would have been the coldest day ever recorded anywhere in Wales (the record is -8.0C), even though it's not generally thought of as a likely candidate to beat the record.
