 Storm Éowyn: Snow and Ice Warning Issued for Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire

Forecasters have issued three warnings for snow, ice, and strong winds across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire, predicting further disruption on Saturday, January 25.

A yellow weather warning for snow and ice has been issued for Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire, with the Met Office warning of further disruption in the aftermath of Storm Éowyn.

The new warning takes effect from midnight on Saturday, January 25, and remains in place until 11am, alongside two other alerts.

An amber wind warning is active until 6am, while a yellow wind warning will stay in effect until 3pm on Saturday afternoon.

Forecasters have cautioned about snow showers that could accumulate up to 10cm on high ground and hazardous ice on untreated surfaces.

The Met Office stated: "Snow showers will continue to affect Scotland overnight into Saturday morning."

"Snowfall will primarily affect higher ground, above approximately 200 meters, where accumulations of 5-10 cm are possible," forecasters have warned.

"Ice will pose a more significant hazard, with icy stretches forming on untreated surfaces as temperatures drop below freezing."

Travel disruption is expected, with roads impacted and Scotland's railways shut down on Friday, with services unlikely to resume normal operations on Saturday.

The Met Office has also cautioned about the risk of slips and falls on icy surfaces and hazardous driving conditions.

The warning applies to most of Scotland, excluding only the far north, Western Isles, and southern parts of the Borders.
