Icy patches overnight Tuesday into Wednesday morning could lead to some disruption.: UPDATED

Effective: Thu January 1, 1970, 1:00 AM
Expires: Wed January 7, 2026, 10:00 AM

Information on update: The start time has been brought forward to Tuesday evening to cover the risk of ice beginning earlier across Scotland and northern England, though noting that this risk emerges progressively later in the night further southeast across the warning area. Following a band of precipitation which clears southeast overnight, clear skies will develop for many areas on Tuesday night, leading to icy patches on untreated wet surfaces. This could lead to some minor disruption,especially on Wednesday morning. For further details see https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/warnings-and-advice/uk-warnings

Keep yourself and your family safe when it is icy. Plan to leave the house at least five minutes earlier than normal. Not needing to rush, reduces your risk of accidents, slips, and falls. If you need to make a journey on foot, try to use pavements along main roads which are likely to be less slippery. Similarly, if cycling, try and stick to main roads which are more likely to have been treated. Give yourself the best chance of avoiding delays by checking road conditions if driving, or bus and train timetables, amending your travel plans if necessary. Be prepared for weather warnings to change: when a weather warning is issued, the Met Office recommends staying up to date with the weather forecast in your area.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
