The warning, issued by the Met Office, comes as temperatures have dropped significantly across the country this week. .
But now, the warning for ice has been issued covering Blackpool, parts of Preston, Lancaster and all of Cumbria. The yellow warning, the lowest that can be issued, is due to come into force at 4pm tomorrow and last until 12pm on December 9.Met Office forecasters have warned this drop in temperature could cause disruption due to icy surfaces. They warned that there could be some injuries from slips and falls on icy surfaces as well as icy patches on untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths.
A spokesperson for the weather company said: "Frequent wintry showers are likely to fall on frozen surfaces in places, leading to the formation of icy patches. These showers are likely to fall as snow on high ground, with the potential for several centimetres to accumulate over parts of southern Scotland, Northeast England, N Wales, the North York Moors and Northern Ireland."
It comes as the Met Office says the 'Troll from Trondheim' is coming. The north east of Scotland will be plagued by the storm from Norway before it moves across the rest of Britain. Northern Ireland, Wales as well as parts of the West Midlands have also been issued a warning for ice on Thursday as cold conditions swoop across the country.
