A weather warning for more snow and ice has been extended to cover much of the west side of the West Midlands.

The yellow Met Office warning runs from 15:00 GMT on Sunday until 12:00 on Monday.

It said the conditions could cause disruption on the roads and railways, and urged drivers to take extra care, particularly on untreated routes.

Minimum temperatures of -5C are forecast for around Oswestry, and -8C in the Staffordshire Moorlands on Sunday, with highs barely above zero.

The Met Office warning has been extended to cover most of Staffordshire, Shropshire, Wolverhampton and the West Midlands conurbation, as well as parts of Herefordshire and Worcestershire.

Snow showers are expected across parts of the region during Sunday evening.

While not all locations in the warning area will see snow, 1-3 cm could develop in many places by Monday morning, with the potential for 5-8 cm to build up in a few locations, said the Met Office.

The UK Health Security Agency upgraded its cold-health alert from yellow to amber earlier in the week, and on Friday extended it until 9 January.

It said those with health conditions and over 65 were particularly at risk.
