Yellow weather warnings for snow and ice persist across parts of the UK, as an Arctic Maritime air mass brings colder conditions from northern Scotland southwards. The Met Office forecasts outbreaks of rain early on Friday, raising concerns about icy roads and potential travel disruption.
A specific yellow weather warning for snow and ice is active for Scotland, running from 4pm on Thursday until midday on Friday. Forecasters caution that snow showers and treacherous icy surfaces could lead to travel delays and a risk of "some slips and falls" for pedestrians.
The forecaster said by Friday morning there may be 1-2cm of snow low ground while on hills above 300 metres (984ft), accumulations of 2-5cm are possible, and up to 10cm “very locally”.
In northern England, a yellow weather warning for snow and ice has been issued from 7pm on Thursday until midday on Friday.
Outbreaks of rain, sleet and snow will likely lead to “icy surfaces and some travel disruption”, the Met Office said.
The weather is expected to stay cloudy and wet across the south on Friday, but is likely to clear later on in the day.
Forecaster Marco Petagna said: “We’ve got colder air starting to feed in from the north and that’s gradually going to push its way south across all parts for the next 24 hours or so.
“As the air sinks down from the north, we’re going to see outbreaks of rain, with some snow mainly on the hills, although across parts of Scotland, it’s quite low levels, as things turn a bit more showery tonight.
“Until midday tomorrow, there’s a couple of snow and ice warnings out for Scotland and Northern England.”
The forecaster said to be “wary” of ice and snow, with potential disruption to transport.
Mr Petagna said there will likely be “widespread frost” on Friday night, but added that Saturday will probably be “the best day we’ve seen for some time” with “a lot of sunshine across the UK”.
He said the temperatures will be “cooler than average” but this will be “offset by the sunshine”.
