Second Yellow weather warning for ice could bring NI to its knees....again

According to the warning temperatures will drop to below freezing.

The weather warning is valid for Northern Ireland for ice between 4pm today and 10am tomorrow.

A warning for ice issued on Monday was already in place until 10am this morning.

According to the latest forecast from the Met Office we can expect a ‘sharp frost’ tonight with the odd freezing fog patch with temperatures expected to dip to a low of -4.

The Met Office advises : “Icy stretches likely to cause difficult travel conditions” and that “icy surfaces cause difficult travel conditions in places.”

And advise the public to expect - ‘some injuries from slips and falls on icy surfacess’ and ‘probably some icy patches on untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths’.
