Met Office issues new 12-hour warning as 6 regions hit by snow, ice and winds

The Met Office has issued multiple yellow warnings for snow, ice and winds as Storm Eowyn continues to wreak havoc across the UK. Meteorologist Tom Morgan said: "The winds have still been strong nonetheless overnight, so it's definitely not the calm after the storm today. "It's certainly a calmer day, but there is still going to be strong winds around, particularly across Scotland today, but for most of the UK, it's certainly a much brighter and less windy picture, at least for most of Saturday.

"Thousands of homes (are) still without power this morning, thousands of trees came down onto power cables, and a lot of disruption to transport will continue, probably through the next few days, and I think that there's still going to be some fairly difficult conditions for recovery operations.".
