People have been warned icy stretches will lead to some “difficult travelling conditions”.

“Icy stretches are expected to form on untreated surfaces during Thursday evening and overnight into Friday morning as temperatures drop below freezing,” the weather forecaster said.

“A few wintry showers are also likely at times, particularly across the far west of the warning area, which may give a further one to two centimetre snowfall above 200 metres.”

It also issued an amber alert for the East Midlands, West Midlands, North East, North West and Yorkshire and the Humber.

The alerts are in place until 6pm on Saturday.

"Expected low temperatures are likely to result in increased use of health care services by vulnerable people and an increase in risk to health for individuals aged 65 years and over, those with pre-existing health conditions (including respiratory and cardiovascular diseases) and some other vulnerable groups, such as those sleeping rough," the agency said.
