"The Met Office has said in the coming days across the UK there will be a cold start to the new year and a yellow weather warning has been issued for snow and ice. Parts of Wales and England will see snow and ice between midnight and noon on 2 January 2026, Northern Ireland will be affected between midnight and 10am on Friday, whilst Scotland will be nit between 6am on New Years Day and the end of Friday."
"This warning highlights the risk of disruptive snow showers and icy surfaces, particularly in northern and eastern areas, with impacts on travel and potential hazards for the public. We expect this cold spell to persist into the weekend and on into next week, with further warnings possible as temperatures remain well below average and snow showers continue in places."
"The weather is forecast to be very cold across England over the coming few days. Low temperatures like these can have serious impacts on the health of some people, particularly older people and those with serious health conditions. Exposure to cold can lead to increased risk of heart attacks, strokes and chest infections. It is therefore really important, as the colder weather sets in, to check in on friends, family and neighbours that are most vulnerable."
