MOTORISTS are being warned to be careful on the roads tomorrow, Tuesday, after the Met Office issued a yellow warning of ice.

Forecasters are predicting temperatures of 2 degrees during tomorrow morning's rush hour but say it will feel more like -2.

Sleet showers are also expected between 7am and 12pm.

While other areas in the north west may get snow, it doesn't look likely any will stick in the Cheshire area.

A Met Office spokesman added: "A band of rain and hill snow will move southeastwards across the UK during Monday evening and overnight.

"A brief spell of wet snow is possible on high ground of southern Scotland, northern England and north Wales, with some small accumulations possible.

"Behind this surface temperatures will rapidly fall away with some ice forming on some surfaces.

"Once the rain has cleared, some hail, sleet and snow showers will follow from the northwest, with 1-3 cm above 200 metres and some small accumulations expected at lower levels."

The yellow warning of ice is in place from midnight tonight, Monday, to 12pm tomorrow, Tuesday.
