The Met Office has issued a new yellow warning for Yorkshire as temperatures are expected to drop below freezing overnight.

Scarborough, Northallerton, Sheffield, Leeds, Bradford, York and Doncaster are just some of the areas that is predicted to receive 2-5cm of fresh snow. The Met Office has predicted it will have a medium impact as the previous snow from earlier in the week will likely turn into ice and become dangerous to those on the road as the temperatures drop to -3 degrees.

The warning is in place from noon on Thursday, November 21 until 10am tomorrow morning.

The Met office said: "Any evening snow showers moving away southwards with clear spells developing. Further wintry showers possible in coastal areas overnight. Windy and cold, with icy stretches likely where showers have occurred. Minimum temperature -3 °C.

"Wintry showers are expected to gradually move south this afternoon, then feeding inland from Irish Sea and North Sea coasts at times this evening and overnight, especially through the Cheshire Gap to affect parts of the Midlands and north Wales. Where these occur 2-5cm of fresh snow is possible, with this most likely on ground above 100m.

"Icy stretches are expected to form on untreated surfaces during Thursday evening and overnight into Friday morning as temperatures drop below freezing, especially following any showers."

Flop is a small penguin who lives in the Dudley Zoo and Castle in West Midlands, England. She's only a few months old, but has already been through a lot in life. Her mother died not long after she was born in April. Soon after, her dad started to leave the nest for long periods of time while neglecting to feed her. Then earlier this year, she became u
