All Shropshire warm hubs as temperatures set to fall below zero
People are being urged to do what they can to keep warm as temperatures dip across Shropshire.
The Met Office has confirmed that more chilly spells are set to fall over the region on the weekend, with lows of 0C on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday and 1C on Saturday.
The cold-weather warning is set to be in place from Saturday, January 6 through to Tuesday, January 9.
Jason Kelly, a Met Office chief forecaster said: “The transition to lower temperatures will be noticeable over the weekend. It will become rather cold next week with lower-than-average temperatures across much of the UK, accentuated by brisk easterly winds in the south.
“As the prevailing weather conditions will be characterised by high pressure, a good deal of settled weather is likely. Clearer skies and a marked reduction in precipitation are expected, although any showers that do occur are likely to be wintry in nature. A combination of overnight freezing temperatures, saturated ground and calm winds mean increasing risks of frost, fog and icy conditions.”
Telford and Wrekin council has offered advice as cold weather is forecast for the county.
The local authority has advised people to be prepared and stay warm as temperatures have already begun to fall.
Telford and Wrekin council wrote on X, formally Twitter: "Cold weather forecast over the coming days!
"Look out for family & friends who might struggle with the drop in temperature.
"Ensure you have sufficient food & medicine in case you can't go out when cold.
"Check you're getting the help you're entitled to for heating your home."
Resources provided by the NHS advise people on how to help those more vulnerable, and those who are struggling to heat their home can visit telford.gov.uk/info/20807/local_energy_supportor contact the council for support.
People are encouraged to take extra precautions to keep safe while the alerts are in place, such as checking on vulnerable friends and neighbours, keeping food and medications in stock and ensuring homes are adequately heated.
