This weather could increase the health risks to vulnerable people and disrupt the delivery of services. The people most likely to be affected are the elderly, the very young, and people with pre-existing medical conditions.
Next week there are also Met Office yellow weather warnings for snow and ice on Monday (March 6) and Tuesday (March 7) but they don’t come close to Sussex. More on yellow weather warnings here
