LATEST UPDATE FROM THE KERNOW WEATHER TEAM: (07:05)

Thursday Morning

A cold, crisp start with some spots waking up below zero. We’ll also be dealing with our old friend… the

YELLOW WEATHER WARNING – SNOW & ICE

Remains in force until 22:59 Thursday

Good morning dear KWT followers!

Some of us are waking up to cold rain showers, others to snow, particularly over the higher ground.

Latest radar is showing the Pembrokeshire Dangler still working its magic!

It's a chilly start, with temperatures ranging from -3°C to around 6°C. A north westerly wind will make it feel colder, closer to -4°C in exposed areas. Bands of wintry showers may develop, mixed with brief sunny intervals.

As we go into the afternoon, forecast confidence decreases as models differ: some suggest showers will persist, while others show them easing. Overall, expect a mix of sleet, cold rain showers, and occasional snow flurries, interspersed with brighter spells. Temperatures remain cold, sitting between 0°C and 7°C, accompanied by a fresh north westerly breeze.

As we go into the evening, those wintry showers will gradually diminish, leaving clearer periods for many areas. Temperatures fall once again, bringing a potential risk of ice and frost overnight, especially with clearer skies.

On the road today? Please allow extra time for your journey and drive with care even on treated roads. Keep well back from the vehicle ahead of you, as braking distances can be up to 10x greater in icy conditions.
