The Met Office has extended the yellow weather warning for ice across Wales as temperatures continue to drop. The forecaster had previously issued a warning for Thursday, December 8, however this has now been brought forward to Wednesday. The yellow weather warning is now in place from 5pm on Wednesday, December 7, until 6pm on Thursday.
The warning has been updated to reduce it across Northern Ireland and Wales, and add an area across parts of south-west England. It now reads: "Frequent wintry showers will spread into Northern Ireland through the early hours of Thursday then on to Wales, parts of western and northwestern England, and parts of Southwest England.
"These will fall on frozen ground in many areas, leading to the formation of icy stretches on untreated surfaces. In addition, showers are likely to fall as snow on high ground, with slight accumulations possible in places."
