SIGNIFICANT snowfall could be on the way, the Met Office has warned.
A Met Office spokesman said the latest indication was that rain and sleet would move in overnight today/tomorrow (Thursday/Friday), turning into snow, especially over the hills.
Snow is also expected at lower levels, particularly away from the east coast, and there is a potential for ‘significant amounts’ in some parts of the island.
It is also expected to cause disruption at some UK airports. With a cold spell forecast over the weekend, any snow will be slow to melt.
