Description

A severe amber cold health alert blankets England, lasting from tonight until January 6th, as an Arctic freeze sweeps the UK. Temperatures plummet to nearly -10°C, with snow and ice forecast across many areas, including London. The UK Health Security Agency warns of significant health impacts, particularly for the elderly and vulnerable, as indoor temperatures may struggle to stay above 18°C. Dr. Paul Coleman urges people to check on loved ones, as cold exposure increases risks of heart attacks, strokes, and chest infections. Yellow warnings for snow and ice span England, Wales, Northern Ireland, and Scotland through Friday and beyond, with up to 5cm of snow expected. New Years Eve revelers face chilly nights around 1-2°C in London. Stay safe and layer up as this cold spell grips the UK through at least the first week of January. Checkout Solipillow.com
