Cold weather alert issued for north-west England from Monday as temperatures plummet
A cold weather alert has been issued as parts of the UK are set to be hit by snow this week. Yellow weather warnings issued by the Met Office have been brought forward as Arctic air moves over parts of Scotland and then down to northern England.
Parts of Greater Manchester woke up to a light dusting of snow on Sunday morning with frost forecasted for much of the region over the coming days. "If you have a pre-existing medical condition or are over the age of 65, it is important to try and heat your home to at least 18°C if you can.’ Areas affected by the warnings could experience power outages, delays to road, rail and air travel, icy surfaces and some rural communities may be cut off by the freezing conditions.
