Here is what to expect according to the warning:
- Some roads and railways are likely to be affected, leading to longer journey times by car, as well as bus and train services;
- Snow and sleet falling on frozen surfaces may lead to icy conditions, increasing the risk of accidents and injuries;
- The combination of wind and snow may cause some drifting and very poor visibilities, especially over hills and moors.
