A SEVERE warning for snow has been issued for Wales today as the rest of the UK is battered by thundery showers and hail.
The Met Office put out a yellow alert for snow on high ground above 300 metres in Wales for this morning.
Forecasters are warning that some roads and railways are likely to be affected, with longer journey times for travellers.
The warning, which covers much of southern and central Wales, is currently in place from 4am to 11am on Thursday.
Rain, sleet and snow are expected to affect driving conditions on Thursday morning, particularly in Wales and the West Midlands.
The Met Office said frost and ice will form and advised people to take care on icy stretches of road.
Hill snow, hail and sleet have hit many parts of the country this week as spring got off to a wintry start.
Forecasters previously said a deep area of low pressure is centred over the UK, bringing with it the potential to drive showers and produce long spells of wet and changeable weather.
A “sudden microburst” of hail and snow caused a 24-car motorway pile-up, Lancashire Police said early on Wednesday morning.
