SALISBURY is set for some snow and ice this weekend, according to the Met Office weather forecast for the city.
A yellow weather warning urging residents to be aware of icy roads was in force from 9pm yesterday (February 6) and will continue until 12pm on Wednesday.
During this period Salisbury could actually see some snowfall, if the Met Office forecast is correct.
Light snow was predicted to fall in the city from 4am this morning.
The needle is expected to drop to 0C today (February 7), with a "feels like" temperature of -6C.
Storm Darcy, dubbed "Beast from the East 2", could bring "up to 30cm of snow" in the Downs of Kent and the North Downs, according to the Met Office.
This is due to strong easterly winds from Ukraine and the Black Sea spilling across the UK.
