Snow is expected to develop, particularly over higher ground, during the early hours of Friday before easing during the morning. Accumulating snow is expected to mainly occur above around 200 metres, with a chance of temporary accumulations below this where precipitation becomes temporarily heavy. 2-5 cm of snow is expected fairly widely above 250 metres with a chance that a few places within the warning area at lower levels could see a few cm settle. Accumulations of 10 cm or more are expected to be reserved for above 300 metres. 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.

Snow is likely to cause some travel disruption on Friday morning, particularly on higher routes.

Region: Strathclyde

Heavy rain is expected to develop across the Central Belt on Thursday night before clearing on Friday morning. Many areas are likely to see 15-25 mm of rain, much of this falling in around 6 hours with a few locations seeing up to 35 mm overnight. What should I do? Check if your property could be at risk of flooding. If so, consider preparing a flood plan and an emergency flood kit. Give yourself the best chance of avoiding delays by checking road conditions if driving, or bus and train timetables, amending your travel plans if necessary. People cope better with power cuts when they have prepared for them in advance. It’s easy to do; consider gathering torches and batteries, a mobile phone power pack and other essential items. 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.
