Yellow weather warning: Snow and ice for Friday

The Met Office have issued a yellow warning of snow and ice for Friday.

There may be heavy snow of 2-5 cm at low levels in the region. On the peaks there could be between 10 -20 cms.

A weather system will bring rain to many areas which could turn to snow before it moves over to the North East of the country.

There is also a widespread risk of ice on unsalted surfaces. Motorists are advised that this is likely to be the case during rush hour.

The warning is valid from 12.10am on Friday to 10am.
