NOTTS WEATHER WARNING: Ice and snow forecast until well into next week as Arctic Blast continues to grip UK

A series of new weather warnings have been issued today (Friday), with snow and ice expected from tomorrow through until Tuesday at the least.

After a slightly milder day today, temperatures will plunge on Saturday, with he Arctic blast then showing no sign of abating.

Forecasters say heavy snow showers late on Saturday could lead to an extra covering of the white stuff.

Sunday and Monday will also see more snow showers, and these could be heavy and lead to further accumulations.

And there will be no let up on Tuesday, with the Met Office issuing an early Yellow warning for snow.

The Chief Forecaster said: “During Tuesday, a subtle change in wind direction will allow showers to spread further inland, with snow showers possibly falling quite widely across northern England (east of the Pennines), along with the Midlands and parts of southeast England.

“The air mass is sufficiently cold for snow showers to accumulate at low-levels and some locally heavy falls are possible.”
