Fresh Glasgow snow and ice warning from Met Office as yellow alert issued

The Met Office has issued yet another yellow weather warning for Glasgow with further snow showers set for the city.

The updated warning has come into force today and is likely going to cause some travel delays as well as slippery surfaces with people driving being warned to take care.

The yellow patch covers Glasgow city centre as well as other surrounding areas including Paisley, Clydebank, Coatbridge and East Kilbride. It came into force as of 9.34am this morning and is set to last until 9am tomorrow (March 11).

The Met Office have said snow showers will continue to affect the Northern Isles and the north of mainland Scotland through today with a "few centimetres of lying snow in places."

They add: "A more organised band of snow showers is expected to move south across northern Scotland this afternoon and evening, with showers becoming confined to northern and some western coastal areas overnight.

"Accumulations will be variable depending on where showers fall, but some places may see two to five centimetres of snow. With a partial thaw of lying snow by day, there is an additional ice risk where this then freezes again overnight."

Another weather warning is also set to occur across the weekend, again for snow and ice.

According to the forecasters, locals can expect the following

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
