A PSNI spokeswoman said: "Motorists are asked to exercise extreme caution due to icy road conditions. Make sure you have cleared the windows on your car before setting off on your journey this morning, Sunday 11th December."
The weather warning is due to end by lunch and the Met Office said: "Probably some icy stretches on some untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths, leading to increased likelihood of accidents or injuries."
The cold conditions are expected to continue this week with temperatures starting to rise again from Friday.
Motorists are advised that the Moneynick Road in Toome is currently closed between the Toome roundabout and Randalstown due to ice on the road. Please avoid the area and seek alternative main routes.
