Weather: Snow and ice warning issued for Northern Ireland

Snow is unlikely to settle on lower ground but other wintry conditions could pose a challenge.

A clear sky overnight will allow temperatures to plummet quite widely, allowing frost and ice to form on untreated surfaces.

This could lead to difficult and hazardous travel conditions.

In the Republic of Ireland, a yellow weather warning has also been issued for counties surrounding Northern Ireland.

Irish weather service Met Éireann is warning of snow and ice for counties Cavan, Monaghan, Donegal, Sligo and Leitrim.

That warning is in place from 19:00 local time on Monday until 08:00 on Tuesday.
