Schools across the UK are shutting their gates today as more heavy snow sweeps the country – check our list of confirmed school closures in England, Scotland and Wales
Schools across the country are closed today as Britain faces more heavy snow and icy conditions.
The Met Office warned wintry weather will sweep across the UK overnight on Tuesday, covering large parts of northern England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, before affecting some areas in the south later in the day. Met Office Chief Meteorologist, Frank Saunders, said last night: “Icy stretches which develop overnight as a result of these showers, or the recent wet conditions, could bring some disruption to travel. In addition to the ice, we could see snow accumulations of a few cm above 200m, with a chance of greater than 5cm above 200m in Wales.
“The heaviest snow showers may also produce temporary accumulations of 0-2cm at low levels. It is not possible to say exactly where this snow might fall, so it’s important that people are prepared.”
Met Office yellow warnings for snow and ice are in place until midday today for a number of major towns and cities, including Manchester, Cardiff, Oxford, Belfast, and Inverness. Current forecasts show another frontal system moving along the English Channel on Wednesday, bringing the risk of 5-10cm snowfall to areas along the south coast and the southeast.
