Drizzly outbreaks expected in Leeds on Wednesday ahead of 'polar vortex'

The cold and windy temperatures are expected to stick around today (February 1)

On Wednesday, Leeds residents can expect a mixture of sun, blustering showers, and brisk winds. Cloud will be thick across the region, particularly later in the day, and the maximum temperature is expected to be 9C, the Met Office reports.

Winds have been ferocious recently and are expected to stick around as wind gusts of up to 42 miles per hour are predicted also. What's more, a 'stratospheric polar vortex' could impact temperatures in Yorkshire quite severely this week or next, with reports it could cause up to seven inches of snow to hit the region.
