Weather warning issued for snow and ice in Nottinghamshire this weekend

The Met Office issued this warning for snow and ice on Thursday 15 December.

‘Widespread frozen surfaces ahead of a band of rain, sleet and snow, pushing northeast across the UK through Sunday, lead to a risk of icy conditions through the morning, before conditions turn much milder from the west.

‘Any sleet or snow in the south or southeast will likely only last an hour or two, before turning readily to rain, but this still onto frozen surfaces for a time.

‘Any slight accumulations, likely no more than 1-2cm, and mostly over higher ground, will melt rapidly, which may briefly add to the ice risk.

‘In addition to the ice and snow risk, strong winds are expected, mainly over higher ground.’
