The Met Office has issued yet more yellow weather warnings for snow and ice, with up to 5cm of snow predicted to fall in north England this week. Drivers have been urged to take care and double check their route amid dangerous conditions and disruption on the roads.
A fresh alert, covering the north of England including Greater Manchester, is now in place between midnight and 12pm on Wednesday January 17. The forecaster warned a mixture of sleet, snow and ice could cause travel disruption, as it comes on top of one covering much of the North and Scotland all day on Tuesday.
The warning for Wednesday stretches from south Scotland to Stoke-on-Trent, including Greater Manchester, Lancashire, Newcastle, Leeds and parts of Sheffield. Liverpool and north Wales are also within the remit.

The Met Office said: "A band of sleet and snow is likely to continue to push across this area and towards the southeast during the first part of Wednesday. This could bring 1-2 cm of snow over the hills in the region, with a small chance of around 5 cm falling in one or two upland areas."
It added: "At lower elevations sleet or very wet snow is likely, but no settling of snow is expected. As this band of sleet and snow clears to the southeast, temperatures will fall below freezing leading to widespread ice developing."
The forecaster also urged drivers to check for road closures and amend their travel plans if necessary. They also recommend keeping essentials, including warm clothing, food and phone chargers, in case of any major delays.
