THE GUARDIAN: Storm Goretti forecast bring as much as 20cm of snowfall in some places amid freezing temperatures
Ice warnings are in place across the UK before a storm that is expected to bring heavy snow later in the week.
The Met Office has issued yellow ice warnings for Wednesday morning for most of the UK, including Northern Ireland, amid an Arctic air mass, which has brought wintry showers across the country.
A yellow warning for snow and ice is in place all day in northern Scotland, with residents there told to expect a further 5-10cm of snow.
Temperatures are forecast to drop as low as -6C in parts of rural Scotland and just below freezing more widely overnight, the Met Office said.
A yellow weather warning for snow, expected in a large part of England covering Sheffield, Peterborough, Bath and Worcester, and in much of Wales, will be in place from 6pm on Thursday until midday on Friday. » | PA Media | Wednesday, January 7, 2026
