The new Met Office warning covers parts of Belfast, Co Down, Co Antrim and Co Londonderry/Derry.

Wintry showers are expected which will then lead to icy patches developing overnight.

Drivers are expected to come across possible icy patches on some untreated roads.

The same can be said for those walking on pavements and using cycle paths, increasing the chance of injuries and accidents.
