00:00So, we just went without a white Christmas. But for a few days at the end of November,
00:07we haven't really seen much snow all winter. But that might soon be coming to an end, with
00:12potentially heavy snow forecast all across Wales over the weekend.
00:16We've seen snow already across Wales, which have remained in place, with cold weather
00:21hitting much of the country. It's been a relatively mild month or so, so the minus temperatures
00:26and windscreen scraping part of the winter might properly be upon us once again.
00:32The snow weather warning is in place all across the weekend throughout Wales, running from
00:37midday Saturday all the way until 9am on Monday morning, so the likelihood is that we'll see
00:43at least some snow wherever you are in the country.
00:47The Met Office have warned there is a bit of uncertainty over exactly how long the snow
00:51could last, but have said power outages and travel problems will be likely over the course
00:56of the weekend and beyond.
