Met Office issues a 'string of four Amber warnings for snow' - London Business News | Londonlovesbusiness.com
""As we begin the first full working week of the year, we face a range of winter weather hazards with snow showers and ice. In the north of Scotland, snow showers are expected to become more frequent on Sunday night with some locations within the Amber warning areas seeing a further 20-30 cm accumulate by Monday morning. Elsewhere in the UK, snow showers, ice and frost are expected at times but milder air will make attempts to spread eastward from Tuesday.""
""As the colder weather sets in it is vital to check in on friends, family and neighbours that are most vulnerable. The forecast temperatures can have a serious impact on the health of some people, leading to increased risk of heart attacks, strokes and chest infections, particularly for individuals over the age of 65 and those with pre-existing health conditions.""
Amber warnings for snow are in force across parts of northern Scotland. Yellow warnings for snow and ice cover many parts of the UK from Scotland and Northern Ireland to parts of Wales and England. Snow showers in north Scotland are expected to become more frequent on Sunday night, with some Amber areas seeing a further 20–30 cm accumulation by Monday morning. Snow showers, ice and frost are expected elsewhere at times. Milder air may move eastward from Tuesday, increasing rain risk in southern areas and creating a boundary where more organised snow could occur. Strong winds could develop later in the week. Forecasts are likely to evolve; people should keep up to date with warnings, plan ahead, and prepare for travel and health impacts, especially for older and vulnerable individuals.
