THE Met Office has issued another yellow weather warning for ice as forecasters predict ice is likely to form on roads across Somerset. 

A yellow warning for ice was in place for the county until 10am today but the Met Office has issued another yellow warning for ice which will start at 7pm today (March 19) and will be in place until 9am tomorrow (March 20). 

The warning comes after snow hit the county over the weekend. 

The Met Office has warned residents that ice is likely to form on some untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths.

This increases the risk of accidents, as well as injuries from slips and falls.

The Met Office's chief forecaster, said: "After a clear start in many areas with the temperature falling below freezing through Monday evening, it will turn cloudier from the north, with the possibility of some wintry showers in places.

"The temperature may come back above freezing in some places for a time, but will fall below again where the cloud breaks.

"Therefore, ice is likely to form where untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths are left wet after snow melts during the day, or partly melted snow refreezes, and where wintry showers occur overnight."
