WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN STANDARD TYRES ... - Seat

BE PREPARED THIS winter
Plummeting temperatures, difficult driving conditions and images of
vehicles losing control and motorists being stranded are hard to forget.
The heavy snow and icy roads are just part of the story – for five months
temperatures can drop below 7°C on average and this is when the
performance of standard tyres drops too.

Met Office statistics show 2010 was the coldest winter for over 30 years, with
December being one of the coldest Decembers across the UK since 1910.
And, last winter the Met Office recorded 147 separate days between
October and March 2012 when temperatures dropped below 7°C during
prime commuting hours in 10 major cities (measured from 7am till 9am
and 4pm to 6pm).*
Respected meteorologists predict that winter 2012/13
will be very cold and exceptionally snowy
Meteorologist James Madden, UK long range forecaster at Exacta Weather,
correctly predicted the harsh conditions experienced in recent years.
He believes the UK will see progressively worsening winters and forecasts
well-below average temperatures – and this includes the upcoming winter
of 2012/2013. Madden predicts the period December 2012 to January 2013
may experience some of the coldest and snowiest conditions in at least a
century at times.
