The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for the weekend in North Wales including Flintshire, Wrexham and Conwy. 

The yellow weather warning comes as ice is likely to be a hazard where snow has fallen over the past few days as part of Storm Larisa.

It covers North Wales including Wrexham, Flintshire, Denbighshire and Conwy.

The warning came into force at 9.30am this morning and will last until 10am tomorrow (Saturday, March 11).

What to expect from Met Office snow warning in North Wales

The Met Office said the new yellow weather warning was due to ice causing hazardous conditions following heavy snowfalls over recent days.

The warning said to expect icy patches on untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths and that people should take care as to avoid injury from slips/falls. 

A Met Office spokesperson added: "Whilst falling snow will clear from the south and east of the warning area in the next few hours, lying snow and ice will likely continue to be a hazard through the rest of this morning.

"Icy stretches should become confined to higher ground this afternoon, before temperatures fall below freezing widely this evening.

"This will lead to untreated surfaces left wet by snow melt becoming icy at all levels, with some disruption to travel likely."
