Met Office updates Edinburgh snow and ice warning as wintry weather hits the capital

Edinburgh's yellow weather warning for heavy snow has been cancelled this morning - but a new warning has been put in its place

Forecasters at the Met Office have updated their weather warning alerts at 9:25am this morning, citing that the "warning area has been curtailed in its northern extent to remove the Central Belt."

And now, a yellow weather warning for snow and ice has been implemented for the east coast, with icy patches and snowfall set to cause disruption. In the previous forecast, Edinburgh was expected to see between 15 and 20cm of snow fall over today and Friday - but a new reading has shown that light snow is more likely to hit at 4pm and stop by 8pm this evening.
