Snow is falling across Greater Manchester
A level 3 cold weather alert, issued by the UK Health Security Agency , has been extended until 9am on Monday.Dr Agostinho Sousa, Head of Extreme Events and Health Protection at UKHSA, previously said:
"During periods like this, it is important to check in on family, friends and relatives who may be more vulnerable to the cold weather, as it can have a serious impact on health. "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.’"Although we’ve moved into meteorological spring there will be a distinctly wintry feel to our weather next week. Very cold air will spread across the UK bringing snow showers even to sea level in the north on Monday and these snow showers could spread further south on Tuesday.
"With freezing overnight temperatures and the risk of ice, it is likely weather warnings will be issued for Monday and Tuesday once the detail of potential impacts becomes clearer, so keep an eye on the Met Office forecast."
