Current alert level: Level 3 - Cold Weather Action in one or more regions of England

Issued at: Sunday 5 February 2012 at 10:01

There is a 100 % probability of severe cold weather and icy conditions between 1000 on Sunday and 1000 on Thursday in parts of England. 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.
A cold day today with areas of lying snow and icy conditions affecting many parts. Outbreaks of light rain spreading southeastwards later today and overnight, with some snow across some east/southeastern parts. This leading to a continuation of the icy conditions for many parts into Monday. A return to more settled but again colder conditions from Tuesday as easterly winds become established. At this stage the cold weather looks like it will last through to the end of the week with the temperature threshold expected to be exceeded across most parts of England.


Regional breakdown Region Risk Comments
North East England 100% Remaining cold or very cold but it should be mostly dry over the coming days.
North West England 100% Outbreaks of light rain spreading southeastwards this evening and overnight with icy conditions to start on Monday. Mostly dry and cold or very cold weather becoming established again by Tuesday, lasting through the rest of the week.
Yorkshire & the Humber 100% As North West England.
East Midlands 100% As North West England.
West Midlands 100% As North West England.
East of England 100% Outbreaks of light rain overnight and through Monday falling as sleet and snow across eastern parts of the region. With temperatures below freezing this will allow icy conditions to persist in many parts. Then becoming more settled from Tuesday but remaining cold or very cold with a bitter easterly wind by the middle of the week.
South East England 100% As East of England.
London 100% As East of England.
South West England 100% Less cold across most of the region today and tomorrow with some light rain at times. However, remaining cold across eastern parts with a frost and icy conditions overnight. The cold weather is then expected to become established across much of the region again during Tuesday and Wednesday, however, it should also become mostly dry.
