I think so. According to the Met:
"For the rest of the winter, the Met Office continues to forecast that near- or above-average temperatures are the most likely outcomes. However, there is still an indication that the UK could experience an increase in the number of cold snaps with some snowfall, later in January and at times through February. " -

It's not called global warming anymore - now it's "climate change". When you have a theory that doesn't quite fit the facts, change the name of the theory.
