    Yellow ice warning issued for Wales as temperatures plunge

    A yellow weather warning for ice has been issued for the whole of Wales, with forecasters warning of difficult travel conditions overnight.

    The Met Office warning is in place from 5pm on Friday 13 February until 10am on Saturday 14 February.

    A band of rain and sleet, with some snow over higher ground, is expected to move southwards across England and Wales on Friday evening and overnight. As clearer skies follow, temperatures are set to drop below freezing, increasing the risk of ice forming on untreated surfaces.

    Icy patches are likely on some untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths. There is also a risk of injuries from slips and falls.

    Motorists and pedestrians are being urged to take extra care. People are advised to leave at least five minutes earlier than usual to avoid rushing, which can increase the risk of accidents.

    Those travelling on foot are encouraged to use pavements along main roads, which are more likely to have been treated. Cyclists are also advised to stick to main routes where possible.

    Drivers should check road conditions before setting off, while public transport users are being reminded to review bus and train timetables and adjust travel plans if necessary.

    The warning covers all parts of Wales, including Cardiff, Swansea, Newport, Wrexham, Gwynedd, Pembrokeshire and Powys, among others.

    The Met Office has also advised people to stay up to date with the latest forecasts, as weather warnings can change.
