Weather experts have warned that ice is expected in Lancashire this week following snowfall.

The Met Office has issued a yellow warning for ice for parts of West England and Wales on Wednesday evening (January 30) and Thursday morning (January 31).

This is because they predict showers falling as a mixture of rain, sleet and snow will continue overnight into tomorrow morning.

It is expected that the showers will lead to ice forming on some untreated surfaces.

All the latest travel disruption as a result of the weather is here.
