THE Met Office has issued an ice warning for Southampton and Hampshire.

The warning will be in place from midnight until midday on Tuesday.

Temperatures are forecast to fall to 2C on Tuesday morning in Southampton, with a "feels like" temperature of -1C.

A Met Office statement says: "A band of rain and hill snow will move southeastwards across the UK during Monday evening and overnight.

"A brief spell of wet snow is possible on high ground of southern Scotland, northern England and north Wales, with some small accumulations possible.

"Behind this surface temperatures will rapidly fall away with some ice forming on some surfaces.

"Once the rain has cleared, some hail, sleet and snow showers will follow from the northwest, with 1-3 cm above 200 metres and some small accumulations expected at lower levels."
