Ice and flood warnings for parts of UK as cool weather continues

The Met Office has issued a new weather warning for ice across northern parts of the UK.

With rain about, the Met Office has warned commuters to stay vigilant due to the risk of ice forming on untreated surfaces which could lead to travel disruption.

It said Sunday was expected to be a "chilly night for many," with a frost in the north.

It added: "Following a spell of rain and some hill snow during Sunday afternoon, temperatures will fall below freezing as skies clear from the west through the evening and overnight, leading to ice forming on untreated surfaces."

Areas covered by the yellow weather warning for ice include: Central, Tayside & Fife, Grampian, the Highlands, South West Scotland, Strathclyde and Northumberland in north-east England.

Monday will see variable cloud cover, bright spells and scattered showers for most, BBC Weather said, with a few longer spells of rain at times for southern areas. Spells of rain and hill snow are expected for northern Scotland.
