Warning about yellow snow
New yellow snow and ice weather warnings for swathes of UK
The Met Office has issued new yellow weather warnings for snow and ice across northern Scotland and in parts of the country's south.
The warnings also stretch down the eastern coast of England - from Newcastle-upon-Tyne to below London - and are in effect from 5pm tonight until 10am on Saturday morning.
I don't know what the country is coming to, we've already had warnings about yellow colds which sound equally unpleasant. Wouldn't want to catch one of those in Sainsbury's.
A ‘Yellow’ Cold Health alert has been issued by the UK health Security Agency in partnership with the Met Office. It is valid until Tuesday 5th December 2023.
The General Overview is that significant impacts are possible across the health and social care sector due to forecast weather conditions.

Frank Zappa knew of the dangers fifty years ago:
Watch out where the huskies go,
And don't you eat that yellow snow

My wife has caught a yellow cold. That new, really bad one that they are recommending honey and lemon for. There's a sizeable slug of Jack Daniels in her recipie though
Sam - it's just like the Met Office to take credit for things already known.
Bucko - sounds as if a sizeable slug of Jack Daniels is probably what makes the recipe work.
Yellow snow? I'll believe it when I see it.
Bill - imagine the hysterical screeching if it was real.
"Up to" 3cm of snow (that is to say, just over an inch) "may" fall in London.
And the mayor declares an emergency!
What on earth has come over us? Where is the Dunkirk spirit? Gone with les neiges t'Antan, I suppose. Sad.
Peter - it is sad. I remember the winter of 1962-63 where people just coped with it as best they could. Maybe we still would, but we are constantly nagged into a childlike state.
