Weather warning for Ice issued for the Scottish Borders
TEMPERATURES are set to plummet below freezing across the Borders this evening.
A Yellow 'Be aware' weather warning has been issued by the Met Office for Ice.
The weather warning states: "Ice is expected to form overnight into Tuesday morning. There is a chance of difficult driving conditions on untreated roads and slippery conditions on pavements and cycle paths are possible.
"In addition, ahead of this some snow is likely to fall Monday evening on high level routes above around 300 m - primarily the southern and eastern Highlands that may prove an additional hazard, disrupting transport routes."
Scottish Borders Council announced earlier today that gritters will be out to treat roads across the region.
