Overview
- Multiple yellow warnings are in force across large parts of the UK today with sub-zero conditions and further winter hazards expected this week, according to Chief Meteorologist Matthew Lehnert.
- Recent observations included nine stations at -10C, with Marham in Norfolk down to -12.5C and Dalwhinnie in the Highlands at -11.2C.
- The Met Office says the 'feels like' figure offers a better guide to how conditions will actually feel outdoors than the measured air temperature.
- The clarification follows public confusion highlighted by TV personality Scarlett Moffatt, who questioned why apps show two different readings.
- The cold spell has caused local disruption including delayed school returns and difficult travel, with warnings likely to be updated through the week.
