"Expect some icy patches to form on untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths on Thursday evening and overnight into Friday," said the Met Office on their website. "There is a risk of slippery surfaces and difficult driving conditions."

The Met Office's Chief Forecaster said: "Across Northern Ireland and northern England, snow will be confined to higher routes, but icy patches are likely where showers leave surfaces wet."
