Warning For Snow And Ice Extended In NI
A yellow weather warning for snow and ice has been extended across Northern Ireland.
The warning has been put in place from 11am on Tuesday, 06 February, until 10am on Wednesday, 07 February.
Sleet and snow showers are expected with icy stretches forming overnight.
A Met Office spokesperson said: "Further showers of snow, sleet and hail will affect western parts of the UK, these frequent in western Scotland and the north of Northern Ireland, where thunder is also possible. 1-3 cm of snow may accumulate at low levels inland, and perhaps 5-10 cm on hills above 200m. Showers will gradually fade overnight Tuesday into Wednesday, with icy stretches developing as skies clear, particularly where earlier snow has partly melted."
The public and motorists are being advised to take extra care.
