Leeds weather: Full forecast with city 'to feel' colder than Iceland as temperatures drop below freezing
Leeds is set “to feel” colder than parts of Iceland today.
A yellow weather warning for snow and ice remained in place until 12pm yesterday (January 6), as experts from the Met Office predicted persistent cold temperatures.
Residents of Leeds woke to a thick layer of snow on Sunday morning and schools across the city continue to remain shut due to resulting travel chaos.
Daytime temperatures across the city are set to stay between 0°C and 3°C, while forecasters at the BBC predict overnight lows of -4°C could “feel as low as” -9°C in some areas - meaning the city is set to feel colder than parts of Iceland.
