Snow and ice warnings issued for Plymouth
Forecasters say icy patches and wintry showers could cause disruption
We are being warned of snow and ice in Plymouth as the Met Office issues warnings.
They come into force at midnight tonight, and last until 11am on Thursday morning.
Forecasters say icy patches and wintry showers may cause some travel disruption.
Drivers making essential journeys are being urged to take care on the roads.
It comes as an amber alert for cold weather in our region, has been extended until the end of the working week.
What to expect
Some roads and railways likely to be affected with longer journey times by road, bus and train services
Some injuries from slips and falls on icy surfaces
Probably some icy patches on some untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths
"Icy patches are likely to develop on some surfaces as showers spread from the English Channel into parts of southwest England. Some places will miss these showers and remain dry.
"Where showers do occur inland they will fall as snow, especially over the hills and moors, and patchy accumulations of 1-2 cm snow are possible with a few centimetres of snow falling over parts of Dartmoor.
"Meanwhile, in coastal areas, showers are more likely to fall as a mixture of rain, sleet and snow and any accumulations of snow will be much smaller and patchier in nature."
