A weather warning for ice has been issued for most of Wales from tomorrow.

Forecasters are warning that sub-zero temperatures will cause widespread frost with a yellow weather warning for ice from 5pm on Thursday until 11am on Friday.

There is also the chance of some snow and sleet, but it not thought this will accumulate for long.

A spokesman for the Met Office said: "Showers, a mixture of rain sleet and snow, are expected to fall onto frozen surfaces leading to icy stretches forming.

"In addition, a more persistent spell of rain and hill snow is likely to spread south across northern England and North Wales during Thursday evening and night.

"Whilst ice is expected to be the main hazard, snow is likely in place too.

"Snow is most likely to fall over The Pennines, North York Moors and the high ground of Wales, with 1cm to 3cm possible here.

"Elsewhere, whilst some snowfall is possible, accumulations are likely to be slight and temporary."

The Met Office warns that the icy conditions could cause injuries from slips and falls on icy surfaces and probably some icy patches on some untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths.

Overnight temperatures in most of Wales are set to fall beneath -2°C tomorrow evening and into Friday morning.
