THE Met office has increased its warning of a severe weather front coming into South Devon tomorrow, January 12.
A yellow – ‘be aware’ - warning for heavy rain, strong winds, and possible snow has now been extended throughout Thursday day and night, and into Friday.
A spokesman for the Met office said: ‘There’s the potential for disruption to transport networks with longer journey times.
‘Associated heavy rain and strong winds may prove hazards throughout Thursday.
‘As skies clear on Thursday night there is also potential for widespread ice to form quite rapidly on untreated surfaces. Icy stretches on untreated roads and pavements are possible.'
An Arctic blast of cold weather will bring snow to large swathes of the country, into the South West and possibly South Devon.
The Met Office has warned snowstorms and chilly winds could see temperatures dip ‘well below’ freezing.
Temperatures in the South West are expected to dip to around -1 degree Celsius.
