A yellow weather warning has been issued for Kenilworth tonight (March 6) with meteorologists warning of possible snow and ice.

The Met Office has put the warning in place from 9pm today until 10am on Tuesday with difficult travel conditions predicted.

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

The Met Office has also warned of "injuries from slips and falls on icy surfaces".

Warnings have been issued across the UK this week. More are predicted as the week progresses, with temperatures locally set to reach -2C on Wednesday morning.

Met Office deputy chief meteorologist Steven Keates said: "The impactful weather will continue through the second half of the week as mild air meets cold air with further snow, ice, wind and then rain likely later in the week and into the weekend.

"From Wednesday, the focus of further snow is across parts of southern England and south Wales, with snow likely to lower levels for a time, and many may wake up to a couple of centimetres of snow on Wednesday morning.

"Through Thursday and Friday the snow risk spreads to central and northern areas of the UK, though it's not possible to pick out precise locations regarding who will see the heaviest snowfall. With a developing situation, it's important to stay up to date with the latest forecast and further warnings are very likely."
