hello, i'm geeta guru—murthy. the met office says large parts of the uk could face disruption from heavy snow and freezing rain this weekend. it has issued two amber weather warnings in england and wales, predicting some areas could see up to a0 centimetres of snow and temperatures as low as minus ten celsius. the weather could lead to treacherous driving conditions, power cuts, and even some rural areas being cut off. amber warning for snow and ice are in place from 6pm today until midday sunday — they cover the east midlands, north—west england, wales, south—west england, the west midlands and yorkshire and humber. our news reporter sharon barbour is following the developments from york. well, it's getting cold already to around three degrees in york now. i left newcastle a short time ago where it was one degrees, but you can feel the air. it's just getting much colder. we're standing around so that makes things worse. we're at the train station.

of course, there are warnings about travel, particularly on the roads where the conditions may be very treacherous as that heavy snow comes in overnight, particularly over the pennines, where we've been hearing up to 40cm of snow, but also dangerous driving with ice on the road. we've been hearing about this unusual phenomenon of freezing ice on, you know, freezing rain on the roads. so as soon as the rain hits surfaces like roads and pavements, it freezes over for the rail. there's already problems with scotrail, northern trains and transpennine warnings again about ice on the tracks, so check before your travel. so the advice is, with this complex weather situation hitting different parts of the uk with either rain, heavy snow or that that freezing rain on the ground but ice right across the uk as well. the advice is to stay indoors if you can, to keep warm and real warnings about that cold weather. the uk health security agency, of course, has issued that safety alert.

that cold weather alert. that's an alarm for people to keep warm, especially vulnerable people. thousands of people die in these cold temperatures, so that's one warning. age uk are also asking people to do everything they can, especially older people, everything they can to stay warm, saying they're already being contacted by people who are worried what to do. the emergency services, the gritters, everybody�*s bracing themselves on standby to react to the strange

of rain, but you can probably see behind me. the north walian mountains are covered in snow, and in fact, to my left hand side you can see a formerly snowed in england's tallest mountain, completely blanketed in snow. now we are expecting that to come to lower levels throughout the day, particularly after 6:00 this afternoon when that amber warning comes into place for the vast majority of wales other than coastal regions. just to remind you of what an amber warning is, the met office say it can mean a potential disruption on the roads, it can mean power cuts and there is even a potential danger to life. there is plenty of advice out there though, for people

during this wintry spell. for snow in particular, it's to plan ahead and to avoid any unnecessary journeys. and then public health wales have given some advice to people for the cold weather that's to come. they are telling people to wrap up warm plenty of layers to stay indoors and to drink plenty of hot drinks to try and get through this amber weather warning. we will keep you updated on all of the travel implications on that too. to let you know some news coming in from the new orleans attack. the british foreign secretary david lammy has released a comment saying that they are extremely saddened to hear the tragic news that a british man was amongst those killed during the attack in new orleans and we are supporting the family and are supporting the family and are united with the us against terror threat. that statement is just common in to us from the uk foreign office as it comes from the prince of wales who has also released a

and carter. you can show some live images of the beginning of today�*s ceremony, a few hours away from here, america�*s georgia. they will be at the hospital where he had been receiving his care. it�*s about a three—hour drive also from atalanta and that is where renewal. it�*s about 20 minutes orso renewal. it�*s about 20 minutes or so from plains, georgia will begin to see this reminiscent ofjimmy carter�*s life was that he big town guy and was not one of these is closed presidents like john f of these is closed presidents likejohn f kennedy. he was a southern president who grew up on a farm without electricity or running water, back in 192a. jimmy carter was this nation�*s longest living president, living an entire century, 100

years of age, passing away odd to some of the 29th of last year. throughout the day, as we bring you coverage of these ceremonies, of the state funeral, we have if you guess who we are going to speak with about the history, legacy and life of the late jimmy about the history, legacy and life of the latejimmy carter, we can bring in amber, professor at the university of tennessee in knoxville and author of the book aboutjimmy carter. it is great to have you with us as we continue to remember the life ofjimmy carter, discusses legacy and it�*s really does begin here in the state of georgia in the south of the country. it begins in a very small town of plains, georgia, that is where we see the funeral procession make its way. keitel is a little bit about of where the 39th presidentjimmy carter began hisjourney —— but presidentjimmy carter began his journey —— but can presidentjimmy carter began hisjourney —— but can is a little bit about. it is an

honour to share a little bit about former president carter�*s legacy. his life began in plains�*s, georgia. he was... he moved to a nearby area for his family farm in the area of archery, plains, georgia was a very small town and very rural as you mentioned. when he became president, the population was about 733 people. population was about 733 --eole. ~ , population was about 733 --eole.~ , people. we see some live pictures — people. we see some live pictures we _ people. we see some live pictures we have - people. we see some live pictures we have the - people. we see some live i pictures we have the funeral procession outside of that hospital in nearby georgia. if you would not mind, as we begin and we expect initial as of

today�*s stated renewal to begin, walk us through what we can expect and what kind of possession procession this will be, might we see an area that�*s a blow to our audience is familiar with, this is the role south of georgia, outside of atlanta. as i understand it, they will be stopping outside ofjimmy carter home and farm where they paid tribute to jimmy carter where they go on atalanta but he would lie there and there library in thejimmy carter centre. this is the medical centre. this town has a special place in the carter

family. that is wherejimmy carter began his higher education at georgia south—western state university and i believe it�*s also where riesling carter this some her studies. there was an interesting about that university. he literally... this was back in 1942, there was some concrete blocks and jimmy carter scored his name in concrete and is one of my favourite stories from that area and writing injimmy carter his name on the actual building. as we continue to make its way to as atlanta, georgia, as we talked about the presidency itself, this is about the headquarters of the 39 a president�*s post—presidency where he did make his name and a lot of his

work and his nobel prize stems from what he did work here, and abroad, internationally. can you help us understand their life thatjimmy carter lived once he left the white house? he was remarks will be one of the remarkable post—presidency in united states history and that was g to the work that he did in thejimmy carter centre after he left office in 1982. the key measures of the carter centre is to champion peace, to pie fight disease and to fight advocate for free and fair elections across the world and certainly both former president carter and key political adviser made that a key part of their munition after the term in office was over. another

notable feature of former president�*s carter legacy that may people concentrate on is the great work that he did in the great work that he did in the habitat for humanity which is a non—profit that is focused upon helping to build homes for the poor and that was so key to former president carter�*s legacy and a central part of his face and mission is to give back to others and to really focus on 1527 00
