The Met Office has issued
a cold weather warning for Kent (file picture)
Kent is set to shiver over a sub-zero weekend - with
forecasters warning of icy road conditions.
The Met Office has today issued a cold weather warning for
the county as temperatures are set to plunge.
It says outbreaks of rain, sleet and snow across the south east
will clear into Saturday evening.
As temperatures in Kent then tumble to lows of minus three
Celsius, the risk of freezing showers and icy roads will
increase.
Sleet and snow showers are then predicted for some areas of the
county on Monday.
Kent's gritters will be out in force, but motorists are advised
to take extra care.
