❄️ Snow Alert for Wales! ❄️
Brace yourselves, as Wednesday might bring a snowy surprise to some parts of Wales! The Met Office has put out a “yellow” level weather warning for 29 areas, including these six in Wales: Conwy, Denbighshire, Flintshire, Gwynedd, Powys, and Wrexham.
Expect rain, sleet, and snow travelling north over mid and north Wales, especially above 200 metres where 1-3 cm of snow might fall. 🏔️ Be cautious of the potential for transient freezing rain over higher ground, increasing the risk of ice.
Drivers, take note! Snowy roads can spell trouble, so plan your trip with extra time and check conditions before heading out. Make sure your car is packed with essentials: warm clothing, food, water, a blanket, torch, ice scraper, warning triangle, high-visibility vest, and an in-car phone charger. 🚗🔦
Elsewhere in the UK, watch out for gusty winds causing blizzard-like conditions, especially in Scotland. Keep an eye on the forecast, stay safe, and enjoy the wintry weather if it comes your way! ☃️✨
