Ice Warning For NI Road Users
Northern Ireland road users are being warned of the likelihood of ice forming on untreated surfaces during Friday night and early Saturday morning.
The UK Met Office said ice is likely to form particularly where showers have occurred during Friday. Showers are due to fall as sleet or snow over hills and to low levels in the north.
The public has been advised to take extra care, as the Met Office has placed a 'yellow' warning for ice and snow.
The Chief Forecaster said: "A band of rain, with hill snow, will move south across northern and central parts of the UK during Friday, followed by showers which will become confined to the north and west overnight. The showers will fall as snow over hills and even to low levels in the north. Clearing skies will allow the temperature to fall below freezing with ice a hazard on untreated surfaces."
