A band of rain, sleet and snow will move eastwards across Wales during Friday morning.
Between 08:00 Fri 18 Jan and 13:00 Fri 18 Jan
There remains some uncertainty in the timing and the extent of any snow, but there is likely to be a few hours where 2-4 cm of snow could accumulate on higher level routes, this chiefly above 250 metres.
However, reports are coming in that North Wales in particular, has already received a dusting a snow today (Thursday).
Ian Cooper shares photographs of the lovely Denbigh Moors covered in snow earlier today:
