    Same for SO40, I'm pretty sure it's covered by Thorney Island as well. It's quite near Hayling Island, there's an army base there.
    You're correct, SO40 is also covered by the weather station at Thorney Island.

    Most weather stations are based at or near what are, or were at one time, RAF or Army sites - the Met Office was until recently part of the Ministry Of Defence.

    Blackpool_Saver is not living in Blackpool, so crosby may not be her local weather station.

    Also, Crosby is my local weather station and has triggered one payment.

    The Department for Work and Pensions have been notified that no periods of very cold weather have occurred in the L3 postcode area between 1 November 2012 and 24 January 2013 that would trigger a Cold Weather Payment. No Cold Weather Payments are due to be made.If you have any other questions about Cold Weather Payments, including delays in receipt of the payments, contact your pension centre or Jobcentre Plus.
