Following recent wet conditions surfaces are likely to remain wet into Monday morning and with a cold night icy stretches will readily form on untreated surfaces.

A few rain, sleet and snow showers may still affect these areas overnight, but ice remains the main hazard.

The Yellow warning will come into force midnight and is in place until 11am on Monday the 2nd January.

Forecasters have said to be wary of slips and falls on icy surfaces, as well as icy patches on untreated roads.

The forecast for the week ahead across Cumbria is for some rain with winds picking up leading to very windy conditions and rain on Tuesday the 3rd January and forecast to continue into Wednesday, before easing through the day on Thursday.
