Three yellow weather warnings for snow and ice across different areas of the UK have been issued by the Met Office, covering over the Midlands, northern England, parts of Northern Ireland, north east Wales and sections of Northern Ireland.
And there could be more trouble tomorrow, with further warnings in place for snow and ice.
A yellow alert has been issued along the east coast of Scotland and England from Berwickshire to Suffolk from 6pm today to midday on Wednesday.
While Blighty’s weather can be pretty unpredictable at times there is a handy iPhone trick that could spare you some of the snow chaos.
Apple‘s very own Weather app will let you know minutes before snow is about to hit your current location, so you can plan accordingly.
It’ll also ping you when snow is due to end.
The feature is all part of the default Apple Weather app already on your iPhone.
Away from snow, it works for things like rain as well.
All you need to do is set it up in a matter of seconds so you’re not caught out by snow or any other weather changes.
IPHONE SNOW ALERTS
To begin, you’ll need to make sure the Weather app has access to your location so it can give you the right predictions.

Choose Always, and turn on Precise Location.
Next, head into the Weather app.
Select the menu button located in the bottom right corner, the one that looks like three bullet-points.
Next, tap on the menu icon in the top right (the one with three dots inside a circle).
You should see a section called Current Location, which has two options below it called Severe Weather and Next-Hour Precipitation.
Turn the two on.
Both are very handy but it’s the Next-Hour Precipitation warnings that do the trick for those snow weather alerts.
