An area of rain, sleet and snow will move north across Northern Ireland on Thursday night. Accumulating snow is expected to be mainly over higher ground, whilst at lower levels many places will see little if any snow. Above around 200 metres, including the Glenshane Pass and Antrim Hills, 2-5 cm of snow is likely to fall with a chance of 10 cm falling in a few places. Rain, sleet and snow will ease on Friday morning. What should I do? Snowy, wintry weather can cause delays and make driving conditions dangerous. Keep yourself and others safe by planning your route, giving yourself extra time for your journey. Check for road closures or delays to public transport and amend plans if necessary. If driving, make sure you have some essentials in your car in the event of any delays (e.g., warm clothing, food, water, a blanket, a torch, ice scraper/de icer, a warning triangle, high visibility vest and an in-car phone charger). Be prepared for weather warnings to change quickly: when a weather warning is issued, the Met Office recommends staying up to date with the weather forecast in your area.

Snow may bring some travel disruption for higher parts of Northern Ireland through Thursday night and into Friday morning.
