Temperatures could plummet to -3c overnight prompting the deployment of gritters for the second night running.
Forecasters at IW Met Service say that 0c to -2c can be expected widely with a few central and southern parts of the Island seeing -3c. It is expected to be above freezing on windward coasts in the north, such as Ryde.
Island Roads has confirmed that gritters will be deployed from 21:00 tonight with all the usual routes and bridge decks at Stag Lane and Foxes Road, Newport treated.
As always, motorists are urged to drive according to the road conditions – especially first thing tomorrow morning.
Corrr not wrong! I see some brass monkeys crying last night it was that cold…
Instead of gritters, for no reason whatsoever, can they sort the roads out? We have the worst roads in the UK.
