🌨️ **Brace Yourselves, UK! Arctic Blast Incoming! ❄️**
Get ready to wrap up warm, folks! The UK Health Security Agency has issued a cold weather warning with a wave of chilly conditions heading our way. From Monday, parts of the Midlands and northern England are in for an Arctic blast, with temperatures nosediving and bringing snow and ice hazards. 🧣🥶
This alert lasts until next Friday and it’s not just about feeling chilly—there might be significant impacts on health services, especially for those over 65 or with health conditions. So, keep your indoor temperatures at a cosy 18°C if you can!
The Met Office reports that we’ve already experienced our coldest night since March, with a frosty minus 7°C in the Highlands. Met Office’s Dan Holley explains, “High pressure from the northwest is pulling in a chilly flow from the Arctic, so prepare for wintry conditions and some nippy northerly winds.”
🚗 **On the Roads**: Expect slippery conditions! The RAC warns of potential ice on roads, especially where heavy rain has fallen. They’re gearing up for a 10% increase in breakdowns, so drive safely out there!
Keep an ear out for updates and potential snow and ice warnings as this cold snap sweeps across the country. Stay warm and stay safe, everyone!
