<font color='#000080'>ADVANCE WARNING OF SEVERE WEATHER
Here is an ADVANCED WARNING of Heavy Snow affecting Scotland, Northern Ireland, England and Wales.
Issued by the Met Office at 09:50 on Saturday, 24 January 2004.
This is the first update to the early warning issued 09:00 on Friday 23 January 2004.
Much colder weather will spread south across the country Monday through to Thursday, and the Met Office is expecting substantial snowfall in many areas. Accumulations exceeding 10 cm are likely in places with drifting where strong northerly winds develop. It remains difficult to predict where the heaviest falls will occur, but the risk is greater from Tuesday onwards, especially in the east, where there is a risk of exceptionally severe conditions with accumulations of more than 15 cm. Dangerous driving conditions are expected and some untreated roads are likely to become impassable.
For inquires regarding this warning - please contact your regional Met Office.
