Best wrap up warm!
You would be wise to wrap up warm this week, as Leeds could see temperatures plummet to as low as -3°C. This comes after the Met Office issued a rare 'Amber Alert' for cold, which is in place across England.
The Met Office has advised people to look out for vulnerable friends and family members, as well as making sure their own homes are heated to at least 18°C. The Amber Warning is in place across England, but nearby Wales and Scotland are not covered.The warning came shortly before 9am this morning and is in place from Wednesday, December 7 until Monday, December 12. All of England is covered by the alert, which means that Leeds will not escape the chilly temperatures.
"This weather could increase the health risks to vulnerable patients and disrupt the delivery of services. Please refer to the national Cold Weather Plan and your Trust's emergency plan for appropriate preventive action."
