AN amber cold health alert has been issued for parts of England throughout the week, as temperatures are set to plummet.
It comes after the Met Office issued a yellow weather warning for ice on Monday across London and the South East from 4am to 10am yesterday, with a forecast of “temperatures near zero” later on Sunday.
Many regions are also still trying to cope with flooding following heavy rainfall in recent days. By yesterday lunchtime, the Environment Agency (EA) said there were 172 flood warnings and 176 flood alerts in England.
The amber cold health alert (CHA) for the North West of England, West Midlands, East Midlands and South West of England, issued by the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) and the Met Office, runs until 12pm on Friday, January 12.
