❄️ Snow is making its presence known in Wales! The B4391 road between Rhyd Y Sarn and A470 Pen Y Bryn, Ffestiniog in Gwynedd has been closed due to significant snowfall. The Met Office has issued a snow and ice warning for Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion, Pembrokeshire, and Swansea from Wednesday noon through to Thursday midnight. 🌨️
Elsewhere, the M48 Severn Bridge faces wind restrictions. Traffic updates suggest rerouting via the roundabouts at junction two eastbound or junction one westbound. Stay vigilant as winds might necessitate quick closures.
Expect wintry showers moving southwards across Wales into Devon and Cornwall, with some areas seeing snow accumulations overnight. Some spots could see up to 10 cm, particularly in hilly areas above 200m in Pembrokeshire and west Carmarthenshire. Be on the lookout for gusty winds and potentially icy conditions in the days to come.
Travel disruptions are possible, so allow extra time for your journeys. The Met Office advises packing your car with essentials like warm clothing, a blanket, torch, and an ice scraper. If walking or cycling, stick to main roads to avoid slippery paths. Plan to leave earlier to ensure safe arrival at your destination. 🚗❄️
Lastly, stay prepared for potential power cuts by keeping torches and power packs handy. Keep checking the latest forecasts to stay one step ahead of the blustery conditions. Stay safe and warm out there, folks! 🌬️✨
