When is the weather warning for?
The warning will run from 4pm on Sunday, December 11 to 11am on Monday, December 12.
What is the warning for?
The warning is for ice and fog. As part of their statement, the Met Office said: "Freezing fog and patches of ice likely to lead to some slow or difficult journeys on Sunday night and Monday morning."
This will include:
- Some icy patches on some untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths
- Slower journey times with delays to bus and train services possible
- Some injuries from slips and falls on icy surfaces
- There is a chance of delays or cancellations to flights
The statement went on to say: "Freezing fog is expected to become more extensive overnight and could produce significantly reduced visibility to 50-100 metres at times, as well as patchy ice on untreated surfaces. Additionally, snowfall that is now easing near and over the Cotswolds, as well as isolated showers elsewhere may lead to some ice developing on untreated surfaces. Although becoming less widespread and thick by lunchtime, some places may be affected by fog for the remainder of the day, particularly in Northern Ireland and northern England."
What part of Wales is affected?
The warning runs up the entirety of the Welsh border with England from Chepstow. It takes in parts of Monmouth, Newport, Powys, Wrexham, Denbighshire and Flintshire. At its most westward point it extends into Newtown.
The cold weather is expected to last at least until the end of the week with other weather warnings still possible. By the end of the week there is more uncertainty but the Met Office has said it could become slightly warmer.
