A yellow weather warning of ice has been issued by the Met Office who say icy surfaces will to some difficult travel conditions across Northern Ireland.


The warning is effective from 4:00pm today, Wednesday 1st January, to 10:00am on Thursday 2nd January.



A Met Office spokesperson said:


“A band of rain, sleet and hill snow will clear southwards during Wednesday afternoon and evening. As skies clear in its wake, and with standing water following earlier rain in places, ice is likely to form quite quickly on untreated surfaces, leading to difficult travel conditions.


“Wintry showers are also likely along some north-facing coasts overnight, increasing the chance of ice in places.”
