A new weather warning for ice has been issued.

The Met Office says scattered wintry showers will be replaced by a longer spell of rain and sleet for a time tonight (Thursday).

The warning covers the Western Isles until 10am on Friday morning.

As temperatures dip below freezing, there is a risk of ice formation on untreated surfaces, especially inland.

Icy roads could result in difficult travel conditions while people risk injuries from slips and falls on slippery surfaces.
