Rain, sleet and hill snow: Difficult driving conditions and travel disruption on high ground

Date published: 03 March 2016


Warning of snow and ice for North West England from 7.00pm Thursday night 3 March to 3.00pm Friday 4 March.

Snow is not currently expected to be disruptive at low levels in most areas, although small amounts are likely in places and ice may prove a hazard on untreated surfaces.

However, snow is expected to settle on high ground above 200 metres.

Please be aware of the likelihood of difficult driving conditions and some travel disruption.
