Weather - from the Emergency Planning Team.

This information has been sent on from Shropshire County Council`s
EMERGENCY PLANNING TEAM


I thought you would appreciate an update on the  weather situation.  There is some potential  for some patchy light snow at times today, Thursday, which may lead to some icy surfaces. However, the main concerns relate to an area of heavier and widespread snow moving from the west across the West Midlands region during the early hours of Friday. This may well persist through the day and into the evening and has the potential to cause significant disruption. Up to 10cm of snow could fall quite widely with up to 15cm in places. There is also the scope for strong winds to cause drifting and possibly lead to snow adhering to overhead power lines etc.

 An AMBER warning has now been issued by Met Office HQ indicating the potential for significant disruption.

Kind regards,

Aggie
