Snow is expected to cause disruptions throughout Wales, as the Met Office has issued yellow warnings for heavy snow in 19 local authority areas. This consists of the counties of Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion, Conwy, Denbighshire, Flintshire, Gwynedd, Anglesey, Monmouthshire, Powys, and Wrexham.
The warnings, one lasting until 07:00 GMT on Thursday and the other until 14:00 GMT on Friday, have resulted in the closure of over sixty-five schools in four counties. It follows a 10-centimeter (4-inch) snowfall on Wednesday that closed more than 70 schools.
Llinos Medi, the leader of Anglesey County Council, urged people to check on their vulnerable neighbours and emphasised the importance of carers in rural areas. The Met Office has issued a warning that vehicles may become stranded on roads, rail services may be suspended, and power outages may occur.
By Thursday morning, according to BBC weather presenter Sabrina Lee, 2-4cm of snow will have fallen at low levels, 5-10cm (2-4in) where there is elevation, and up to 20cm (8in) on higher ground such as the Brecon Beacons and Monmouthshire.
During this cold snap, the Welsh public is advised to exercise extra caution on the roads and to be prepared for potential disruptions. During this time, the Met Office also reminds individuals to check on vulnerable neighbours.
