A Met Office yellow weather warning for snow and ice has been issued today for Northern Ireland, advising snow showers and icy patches may lead to some travel disruption for this evening and overnight.


The advisory is in place from 6:00pm this evening (Saturday 25 January) to 10:00 on Sunday morning.



A Met Office spokesperson commented:


“Showers, mostly of rain and sleet at lowest levels and near western coasts, but of snow above around 150m, are expected to affect the area during Saturday evening and overnight, before dying away during Sunday morning.



“Temporary slushy deposits are expected below 150m, with locally 2-5cm above this level with the chance of 5-10cm above 400m in the Scottish Highlands.


“Additionally icy patches will form on untreated surfaces.”
