Snow warning for London amid ‘severe’ UK amber sub-zero weather alert

  • Résumé

  • The UK Health Security Agency has issued an amber ‘cold-health alert’ warning for London amid plunging temperatures and a forecast for snow at the weekend.

    London plunged below zero overnight, with a ”feels-like” temperature of -4C on Friday morning - and more low single-digit chills forecast next week.

    Nationally, the cold weather blast has seen temperatures drop to -5C overnight with warning of -8C next week.

    It comes just weeks after devastating floods caused by Storm Darragh.

    The Standard podcast is joined by Met Office meteorologist Alex Deakin and Mhairi Sharp, chief executive of the National Emergencies Trust.

    In part two, could a new type of DNA analysis technique on crushed-up ancient bone fragments rewrite of some of Britain’s key moments in ancient history?

    We’re joined by King’s College London professor of medieval history Peter Heather to discuss the joint research with the Francis Crick Institute.
