The snow will continue to fall until around 9am, potentially causing traffic nightmares thanks to the flurries. Maps suggest the heaviest snowfall will be over north Wales, the north west of England and into Northern Ireland. Meanwhile, the country is continuing to prepare for the might of Storm Éowyn on Friday and Saturday. It has triggered amber and yellow weather warnings ahead of its arrival from tomorrow with forecasters predicting wind speeds of up to 90mph in some regions bringing "widespread disruption".
The latest named storm turned weather maps red, purple and black, indicating the harsh gale speeds that will whip round the country. Met Office deputy chief meteorologist Mike Silverstone said: “Storm Éowyn is expected to bring very strong winds and widespread disruption on Friday. There are currently a number of weather warnings in place, with all parts of the UK covered by one warning at some point on Friday.
