TEMPERATURES are due to plummet across the region tonight as a yellow weather warning is issued for most of the UK.
The Met Office said snow and ice could lead to travel disruptions into Thursday morning, with roads, pavements and cycle paths likely to remain affected by the sub-zero temperatures.
It urged people to be vigilant when out and about when negotiating the slippy conditions.
The warning added: “Whilst not all areas will see these where they do fall ice is expected to form. The showers are also likely to fall as snow at times, mainly above 200 m but to some lower levels, particularly on Thursday morning over southern Scotland.”
