Met Office 'accident' warning as rapid freezing conditions come to Ayrshire

Weather forecasters have issued an ice warning for Ayrshire later today.

The Met Office say freezing conditions will arrive from 3pm today with the yellow warning in place until 11am tomorrow.

Experts say as a result of the weather front there is a "higher likelihood of accidents and injuries due to icy surfaces."

Forecasters also predict that icy stretches will form on untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths.

The Met Office warning reads: "Rain and snow will clear southwards later Monday and overnight into Tuesday, with a rapid freeze following.

"Some hilly areas will see a further cover of 1-3 cm snow beforehand.

"Ice will become widespread over northern Scotland from around dusk, much of the rest of Scotland by late evening or the early hours, and across northern England later in the night."
