KENT is due for widespread snow and ice on Saturday and Sunday, according to the Met Office.

The forecast shows a band of snow moving slowly into eastern England from the North Sea late on Saturday evening and into Sunday morning.

The Met Office said Kent, along with Surrey and South London should expect snow up to 10cm deep, including in low-lying areas, and warned people to be prepared for travel disruption.

However, with temperatures rising from as low as -4C in some areas overnight on Saturday to up to 2C on Sunday, the snow is not expected to last.
