Severe Weather Warnings: Snow/Ice

valid from

Region: Orkney & Shetland

Warning

Snow showers will affect northern Scotland overnight Wednesday evening into Thursday morning. Accumulations of up to 2cm are expected quite widely across the warning area, with up to 5cm possible on higher ground particularly of the northwest Highlands. Icy surfaces may be a hazard where sleet or snow showers fall on to frozen surfaces. What should I do? Snowy, wintry weather can cause delays and make driving conditions dangerous. Keep yourself and others safe by planning your route, giving yourself extra time for your journey. Check for road closures or delays to public transport and amend plans if necessary. If driving, make sure you have some essentials in your car in the event of any delays (e.g., warm clothing, food, water, a blanket, a torch, ice scraper/de icer, a warning triangle, high visibility vest and an in-car phone charger). Be prepared for weather warnings to change quickly: when a weather warning is issued, the Met Office recommends staying up to date with the weather forecast in your area.
