Read the original article on mirror.co.uk (opens in a new tab)The Mirror reports official advice that people aged 65 and over should heat their homes to at least 18C in cold weather, attributing it to Public Health England, the Met Office and UKHSA. Its headline places the advice 'in polar vortex snow', although the body says the current cold comes from high pressure and Arctic air and that the polar vortex's effect on UK weather is not yet known.
“while stressing that the current cold snap is the result of high pressure and chilly air sweeping down from the Arctic”
The article reports the Met Office's own explanation of the current cold and keeps it separate from the uncertain polar vortex outlook.
“it remains too soon to determine the full impact on UK weather”
The body keeps the forecaster's uncertainty about the polar vortex instead of presenting it as a settled forecast.
“Dr Anya Gopfert, Consultant in Public Health at UKHSA, added”
The health advice is attributed to a named official with her role, so readers know who is giving it.
