Wales weather: Snowfall as warning extended and roads shut

Snow has fallen in parts of Wales after a weather warning was extended amid falling temperatures.

The Met Office has forecast wintry conditions until noon on Sunday, with a yellow weather warning in place.

It caused some disruption with icy surfaces and snow in a few places. Road closures have also been announced in some counties.

Meanwhile, Welsh Water has been working to repair a burst water main in Dryslwyn in Carmarthenshire.

The snow warning came after the extension of a weather alert until Sunday.

The mountain road between Penegoes and Dylife, Powys, was closed due to snow.

In Ceredigion, traffic analysts Inrix also said the A44 between Goginan and Llangurig was impassable on Saturday evening.

And the A494 at Llanbedr Dyffryn Clwyd, Denbighshire, near the Clwyd Gate Inn, was not passable for a time due to the icy conditions.

Vehicles were also unable to pass on the B5430 Hen Ffordd, Minera, Wrexham - the hill leading out of Coedpoeth - due to icy roads.

Some areas have already experienced snowfall - such as Llanymawddwy and Llanuwchllyn, in Gwynedd - while others were told to expect flurries later on Saturday or Sunday.

People have been warned to expect icy patches on some untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths, with a risk of injuries from slips and falls.

In a few areas, difficult travel conditions may occur quite quickly due to heavy sleet, snow or hail showers making surfaces slippery or even snow-covered.

In Carmarthenshire, Welsh Water said the burst water main affected Dryslwyn and surrounding areas in the SA32 postcode area.

Residents were warned they could experience low pressure or no water at all.

It was estimated that the repair could be completed later on Saturday.
