Council warns about risk from lying snow

Denbighshire county council is urging residents and visitors to be aware of the continued risk of lying snow and any snow remaining on roofs of buildings and on high structures 

A spokesman for Denbighshire County Council said: "We have issued warnings to members of the public to be aware of the continued risk of lying snow and any snow remaining on roofs of buildings and on high structures. 

"An unprecedented amount of snow has fallen in recent times, in particular in the south Denbighshire area.  With the snow now starting to thaw, we would urge people to remain vigilant as there may be certain movements of snow that may occur without warning."

The council says it has been working tirelessly to clear as many of the county's roads as possible and treating pavements in town centres but adds: "Inevitably there is snow in locations which the council cannot clear."
