Snow and ice warning for parts of Wales

Snow and ice could lead to disruption from Monday evening with up to 20cm (7.9 in) on high ground in north Wales.

The Met Office has issued a weather warning for Conwy, Denbighshire, Flintshire, Gwynedd and Wrexham between 19:00 GMT on Monday and 10:00 on Tuesday.

Ice could form on untreated surfaces on Tuesday morning as rain, sleet and snow begin to clear, the forecaster said.

It added that travel delays on roads, rail and air travel were possible, while power cuts could also occur. Some rural communities could also become cut off, the Met Office warned.

Some snow could accumulate in lower areas, which would prove "more disruptive", although this was more likely to occur in central and eastern parts of England.

The Met Office warned drivers to plan their journeys in advance, to check for delays and road closures.

People were also being told to prepare for potential power cuts at home.

A giant female Chinook salmon flips on her side in the shallow water and wriggles wildly, using her tail to carve out a nest in the riverbed as her body glistens in the sunlight. Now, less than a month after those dams came down in the largest dam removal project in U.S. history, salmon are once more returning to spawn in cool creeks that have been cut off to them for generations. Video shot by the Yurok Tribe show that hundreds of salmon have made it to tributaries between the former Iron Gate and Copco dams, a hopeful sign for the newly freed waterway.

A powerful typhoon wrecked houses, caused towering tidal surges and forced hundreds of thousands of people to flee to emergency shelters as it cut across the northern Philippines on Sunday in the sixth major storm to hit the country in less than a month. Typhoon Man-yi slammed into the eastern island province of Catanduanes on Saturday night with sustained winds of up to 195 kilometers (125 miles) per hour and gusts of up to 240 kph (149 mph). There were no immediate reports of casualties from the typhoon, which was forecast to blow northwestward on Sunday across northern Luzon, the archipelago's most populous region.
