Snow, ice and flood warnings issued - London Business News | Londonlovesbusiness.com
""The Met Office said there is a yellow warning for snow and ice from Derby to most of Scotland, and snow could be "heavy at times," adding there could be "some disruption to travel." The forecaster said, "accumulations of 1-3cm (of snow) will be possible at low levels, with 3-7cm possible above about 150m elevation, and perhaps 10-15cm above 400m.""
""Areas sheltered to the north of high ground may see very little snow. Ice will be an additional hazard, particularly across north-east England and parts of Scotland where precipitation has the potential to fall on frozen ground, leading to very slippery conditions. Snow will turn increasingly to rain into Sunday morning, perhaps as a short spell of freezing rain in places, before eventually clearing to the east with a steady thaw of lying snow then setting in.""
Yellow weather warnings cover large areas from Derby through much of Scotland, with snow and ice alerts active for eastern England between 10:00 and 16:00. Flood alerts affect over 70 areas across Britain, with more than 24,000 homes and businesses protected and over 300 properties flooded. Expected accumulations include 1–3 cm at low levels, 3–7 cm above about 150 m, and 10–15 cm above 400 m. Ice poses an additional hazard, especially in north-east England and parts of Scotland where precipitation may fall on frozen ground. Snow is likely to turn to rain into Sunday morning, followed by a steady thaw as conditions clear eastwards.
