Daily gritting schedule 25/02/2024

Dry this afternoon with spells of sunshine. Staying dry for most places tonight beneath clear periods with the exception for one or two showers just edging in over the Pennines, these perhaps wintry with sleet or even snow, especially at Hartside. Cold, with RSTs falling below zero with hoar frost a risk, as well as icy stretches in seepage spots. Where the wintry showers do track, the addition of moisture to the road surfaces will increase the ice risk too. Sunshine again tomorrow morning with the chance of a couple of showers developing.

Existing routes have enough residual salt to negate the effects of any forecast hoar frost.
