MORE snow and ice is on the way, according to forecasters who have issued another weather warning.
The Met Office has put in place a yellow warning across the north west of England and north Wales for snow and icy patches.
This alert comes into effect from 3am tomorrow morning, Thursday, and it will remain in force through to midday on Thursday.
Forecasters are warning of possible travel disruption, with some roads and railways likely to be affected, with longer journey times by road, bus and train services
There is also a risk of injuries from slips and falls on icy patches on some untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths.
A Met Office spokesman said: “Showers, mostly of rain and sleet at low levels and near coasts, but of snow inland and over higher ground, are expected to affect the area late on Wednesday night and on Thursday morning.
“With many surfaces below freezing, this will lead to some icy stretches on untreated surfaces, while a few centimetres of fresh snow could affect some areas, mainly places above about 100 metres.
“Snowy and wintry weather can cause delays and make driving conditions dangerous.
“Keep yourself and others safe by planning your route, giving yourself extra time for your journey, check for road closures or delays to public transport and amend plans if necessary.
“If driving, make sure you have some essentials in your car in the event of any delays, such as warm clothing, food, water, a blanket, a torch, ice scraper, de-icer, a warning triangle, high visibility vest and an in-car phone charger.
“Be prepared for weather warnings to change quickly. When a weather warning is issued, the Met Office recommends staying up to date with the weather forecast in your area.”
