Gritting teams have been out across the county this afternoon after it was predicted that more snow is due to fall this evening.
Suffolk County Council’s gritters have been treating A and B roads, followed by bus routes and other main roads, since 2pm today.
Gritters will also be at the council’s road salt depots to grit roads throughout the night if it is necessary.
It is expected that two inches could settle on top of the icy roads and pavements that have been left in a treacherous condition following the weekend’s snow storms.

How can 8cms become 2 inches?. Apart from the fact of mixing metric and imperial in the same article When I went to school 2 inches was only 5cms.

A possible covering in the very west of East Anglia, according to most forecasts - We're hardly going to be 'hit' again.
