    Is that the official weather forecast for Tackleford? “Wear your heavy coats, because it’s going to be brass monkeys today!”

    Hmm… I found this… I think what the girls agreed on was that the coat would keep the cold out.

    brass monkey weather

    (British English, slang)

    If you say that it is brass monkeys or brass monkey weather, you mean that it is very cold weather:

    Wear a hat — it’s brass monkeys out there!

    The full expression is ‘cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey’, although this is not often used.
