Heavy snow warning for Fife this weekend

The Met Office has issued a weather warning with heavy snow, ice and high winds expected to hit Fife and most parts of Scotland this weekend.

The yellow warning covers the period from noon on Saturday until 10am on Sunday.

There is the possibility of blizzards in some areas causing delays on roads and stranding vehicles.

The Met Office say, “There is a risk of snow developing with strong south-easterly winds affecting northern UK on Saturday afternoon into Sunday morning.

This is how Scotland will look at 3pm on Saturday

“The snow could be heavy at times, especially over hills where blizzards may develop, and is likely to drift in strong winds.

“Across northern England and southern Scotland, snow may turn to freezing rain above 200-300 metres leading to widespread ice developing on Saturday night. 2-5 cm of snow is likely at lower levels, whilst higher ground could see 10-20 cm.”
