A cold weather alert has been put in place for later today going into next week.
The Met Office released information about the cold snap, with temperatures set to drop heading into the new week. The national weather service has revealed that there is a 60% probability of severe cold weather between 6pm today (Sunday, February 5) and 6pm Tuesday, February, 7. The cold snap will cover most of the UK, including Merseyside, with an increase to health risks for vulnerable patients.
Disruptions to delivery services may also come as a result of the dip in temperatures. Long clear spells overnight will see temperatures fall below freezing with frost developing across England. Temperatures will likely return to close to average for the time of year during the day but then drop again in the evening.
