Met Office Issues 'Yellow' Weather Warning For Snow
The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for sleet and snow in some areas of Northern Ireland.
The warning comes into effect just after midnight on Wednesday until 10am.
The Met Office said: Outbreaks of rain are likely to turn to sleet or snow in places later on Tuesday night and during Wednesday morning, giving local accumulations. This will be primarily, but not exclusively, over the higher ground where 2 to 6 cm may accumulate, although parts of the warning area may escape. At lower elevations, a slushy cover of up to a centimetre or so is possible. Please be aware of the potential for some difficult driving conditions overnight and into the Wednesday morning rush hour."
