Read the original article on lbc.co.uk (opens in a new tab)LBC reports the Met Office forecast of rain, sleet, ice and some snow, mainly in northern Scotland, over the weekend of 14 and 15 November, with a severe wind chill warning for 10 mountain regions. It attributes the forecast and the health risks to the Met Office and a named forecaster, and keeps the Met Office's likelihood levels. A cold snap is not one of the extreme weather types that call for a climate link.
“Met Office Deputy Chief Forecaster Steven Keates said”
LBC names the forecaster and his role, so the reader knows exactly whose forecast this is. The same quote appears in other coverage of the day.
“prolonged exposure could result in frost nip or frostbite on exposed parts of the body and/or hypothermia”
LBC gives the reader the concrete health risk of the wind chill in the Met Office's own words, not a vague warning.
“a low likelihood of blizzards in the Northern Highlands”
LBC keeps the Met Office's likelihood levels, so the reader is not led to expect worse weather than forecast.
