THE Met Office has issued a fresh snow and ice warning for parts of North Worcestershire as temperatures drop.

A yellow warning has been put in place for the West Midlands from noon today (November 21) until 10am on Friday (November 22).

The Met Office said: "Wintry showers are expected to gradually move south this afternoon, then feeding inland from Irish Sea and North Sea coasts at times this evening and overnight, especially through the Cheshire Gap to affect parts of the Midlands and north Wales.

"Where these occur 2-5cm of fresh snow is possible, with this most likely on ground above 100m.

"Icy stretches are expected to form on untreated surfaces during Thursday evening and overnight into Friday morning as temperatures drop below freezing, especially following any showers".
