The Met Office has issued an update on the chances that Greater Manchester will experience any snow this week.
It comes as the Met Office issues a warning of abnormally cold weather for this time of the year rolling in throughout this week and next. A chief meteorologist explained that rainy conditions will become "more wintry" as the week goes by, accompanied by a chance of snow.
The UK Health Security Agency also issued an amber level 3 cold weather alert warning the freezing temperatures can have serious negative impacts on vulnerable people's health, including older people and those with heart of lung conditions. However, while temperatures will get noticeably colder due to Arctic winds across Greater Manchester, the odds of snow will be slim, according to a senior meteorologist.
