Brisk northwest winds continuing and it'll be very cold, with widespread frost expected and a risk of icy patches.

The low temperature will be about -1C (30F):

Stamford Hospital said the card appeared "every year without fail" on the matron's desk, with the same message.

It is addressed to nursing staff at the now disused Exeter Ward and has a postal mark for the South East Anglia Mail Centre in Chelmsford, Essex.

Hospital matron Sue Brooks said it had been a "great mystery" for 57 years.

"It would be great to find who is still so grateful after all these years," she said.

Environment Agency engineers are testing an emergency pump today which will be called into action in bad weather.

Forget Bristol graffiti star Banksy, Lincolnshire's graffiti talent comes with a raft of other credentials...

It's been discovered that none other than Sir Isaac Newton may have daubed his own "tag" on the wall of his house in Grantham as a youngster.

Admittedly, it's not easy to see, but experts assure us that the etchings on the wall of Woolsthorpe Manor, where the illustrious scientist grew up, are likely to be scratchings showing a windmill.

Nottingham Trent University experts using cutting-edge light technology discovered the etching near a fireplace in the National Trust property in Grantham.

A row's broken out in North East Lincolnshire over changes to flood defences.

Residents in North Somercotes say a plan to demolish an old sea defence will mean the loss of a popular footpath and make them more vulnerable to a tidal surge.

But the Environment Agency says its work will actually improve defences as well as creating valuable wildlife habitat:

Police believe the moped rider was tailgating a white Ford Fiesta through Lincoln city centre on Tuesday 5 December before the vehicles turned in different directions.

Five minutes later, the moped returned and the rider threw a lump of concrete through the Fiesta's rear window on Napier Street, completely smashing it.

The rider is described as a white male in his 20s, with a full beard and a "retro military-style" motorcycle helmet.

Anyone with information about the incident is being asked to contact police.

A former education minister has urged Theresa May to appoint a "minister for good schools" to be based in Grimsby or Blackpool, with responsibility and funding for improving standards in poorly performing areas.

Lord Adonis has also said that schools should be forbidden from expelling children unless they break the law to stop lives "going completely off the rails".

The peer told his colleagues during the annual Lords debate led by the Archbishop of Canterbury: "Deep poverty, pervasive drugs, obesity, anti-depressants and mental illness in a large isolated town exhibiting alarming signs of disintegration - including the largest encampment in Britain of children expelled from school.

"It's euphemistically called a pupil referral unit. Even more euphemistically it's run by an organisation called Educational Diversity, but it's basically a dumping ground for 330 children that schools want nothing to do with," he said.

"For Blackpool today, read also Hull, Grimsby, large parts of the North and the Midlands, and large towns in the South," Lord Adonis added.

A yellow "be aware" weather warning's been issued by the Met Office for Yorkshire and the Humber region this weekend.

A Lincolnshire school has really raised the bar when it comes to in-house Christmas productions.

Pupils at William Alvey School in Sleaford have not only written their own festive song, but also created an impressive video to go with it.

It's all being done to raise money for children's charities.

Saltney Gate (pictured), in Holbeach, only manages an average of 0.89MBps download speed.

That's 201 times slower than the highest speed recorded, of 177MBps, which was measured in North Lanarkshire.

The list has been compiled by price comparison service uSwitch, which says broadband speeds are still a "postcode lottery".

Work on a museum to commemorate people who served in Bomber command in World War Two is very nearly finished.

The International Bomber Command Centre (IBCC) in Lincoln has been in the offing for six years, and now only the final touches remain.

The centre will open to the public at the end of January next year.

Nicky Barr, director of the IBCC, says there are still some last-minute touches to make until the museum is ready for the public:
