Snow and ice warnings have been issued for large parts of the UK as temperatures are set to plunge well below zero. The Met Office has issued four days of warnings starting yesterday, as Arctic winds see the return of the pre-Christmas cold snap.
Today is expected to be the worst affected day of the week, with warnings for snow in the South East and Scotland, and ice warnings for northern England and Northern Ireland. Temperatures were set to drop as low as 4C overnight from Sunday into Monday, struggling to get above 5C during the day.
The first alert, which warns that wintry showers will lead to difficult driving conditions due to slippery surfaces, is in place until 10am today. A lengthy yellow warning for snow and ice across northern Scotland is to last until 10am on Wednesday. And another warning for snow across parts of southeast England has been issued by the forecaster for this morning, lasting until 8am.
