The Cold Weather Payment (CWP) scheme is administered at weather station level rather than at a constituency or regional level etc. The coverage area for each weather station is determined by the Met Office, which assesses the most appropriate weather station for each postcode area. Cold weather payments are triggered when the average temperature recorded at the weather station has been recorded as, or is forecast to be, 0°<\/strong> C or below over seven consecutive days, during the Cold Weather season (November to March).<\/p> <\/p> a) The area of South Holland covers all or part of the following postcode areas: PE11, PE12, PE10, PE6, PE13, PE14, PE34.<\/p> <\/p> From the 2019/20 to 2023/24 Cold Weather Payment seasons, the above postcode areas are covered by various weather stations.
