A new weather warning for heavy snow has been issued for Glasgow, with the alert due to come into effect tomorrow.
It is the latest in a string of Met Office warnings for the city, as we have faced weeks of freezing conditions. Currently, a yellow alert for ice is in place until 11am today.
Now, a warning for heavy snow issued for Scotland, including Glasgow and its surrounding areas, is predicted to begin from 8am tomorrow (Wednesday) morning and will remain in place for two days until 9pm on Thursday.
A statement from the Met Office reads: "An area of rain pushing north-eastwards is expected to increasingly fall as snow, at least for a time, as it encounters colder air across Scotland and parts of northern England.
"Heavier snowfall is more likely above 150 m, where 5-15 cm of snow may accumulate, and possibly as much as 30 cm of snow in a few locations. At lower levels 2 - 5 cm may accumulate but there remains a possibility that milder air makes more inroads, with the snow turning back to rain more widely, in this case snowfall would largely be restricted to the highest ground.
"A brief period of freezing rain, which would bring areas of ice, is possible in the western, especially south-western, part of the warning area on Wednesday morning."
The Met Office has warned of possible travel delays on roads, as well as possible power cuts - although the current lockdown restrictions mean that fewer people will be on the roads or using public transport, unless their journey is necessary.
