00:00The cold snap is looking to grip Kent a little while longer as the Met office has issued a yellow ice alert for tonight.
00:11Kent can expect to see the usual slippery roads and surfaces as a result of the ground being frozen and waking up to frosty car windows.
00:22Now of course ice isn't just a risk on the road but as you can see behind me it also poses a danger for walkers too, especially elderly residents who are more vulnerable to falls, slips and injuries caused by ice.
00:43The best way to clean your car is with a scraper and a bottle of de-icer and it's recommended to bring gloves, hats and refreshments on your car journey in case of delays and breakdowns.
01:00Met office deputy chief forecaster Chris Ballmer has also said that Storm Goretti will move across the south of the UK during Thursday and into Friday, potentially leading to a multi-hazard event.
01:19Therefore, residents are advised to keep up to date with the latest forecast.
01:25The warning will be in place until 10am tomorrow.
