Kent's on snow alert as the temperatures are set to plummet and
gritters prepare for the white stuff.
The county is due to be in the grip of a snowstorm by the end of
the weekend or early next week, according to weather experts.
Mark Wilson, forecaster for the Met Office said: "There's high
confidence that conditions will turn colder over the next few
days.
"In terms of snowfall there's more uncertainty, but there's a
risk of Kent seeing snow by Monday.
"On Monday there's a risk of a band of sleet and snow pushing
from the north west and reaching the Kent area - from Monday night
into Tuesday.
"Temperatures reaching no more than two or three
degrees - a very cold day especially in the wind."
