The warning affects the whole of Kent as well as most of the north and east of England from 12.05am on Saturday until 11.55pm.

A spokesman said: "A band of rain will turn more widely to snow early Saturday morning followed by scattered snow showers through the remainder of the day.

"These showers may become more prolonged, particularly during the evening.

"Any melting of lying snow will lead to an ice risk on untreated surfaces on Saturday morning and night."
