A YELLOW weather warning for snow and ice has been issued days after Storm Christoph battered the coast.

The Met Office has warned of potential travel disruption as "a band of rain will turn readily to snow" on Sunday.

Brighton and Hove is one of the areas that could see snow, as well as other areas across East and West Sussex.

Some roads and railways likely to be impacted, with longer journey times by road, bus and train services.

Ice patches are also expected on untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths, with up to 3 cm of snow expected in "for most parts".

The Met Office warning read: "An area of rain will cross the west and southwest of the country on Sunday morning and turn readily to snow as it spreads eastwards, and also lead to some icy surfaces.

"Mainly 1-3 cm of snow accumulation for most parts, but possibly 5-10 cm over 100 m with a small possibility of 10-15 cm over high ground for example on Dartmoor, the Brecon Beacons and Snowdonia.

"These snow amounts will cause some disruption to transport, especially on routes that cross even modest high ground."

The warning comes into force at 3am on Sunday and is set to last until 6pm.
