The Met Office has issued a weather warning ahead of Arsenal's clash against Brentford. The Bees will host the Gunners at the G-Tech Community Stadium on Wednesday night as either side hopes to climb the Premier League table.

Brentford, who will be eager to return to winning ways after three games without a victory in the English top-flight, were held to a goalless draw against Brighton on Friday night. Meanwhile, Arsenal enjoyed a 1-0 win over Ipswich Town.

Liverpool have enjoyed a brilliant start to the season, establishing an eight-point advantage over Nottingham Forest in second and a nine-point lead over Arsenal in third. But there are still lots of games to be played and points to be won.

Nevertheless, ahead of the Gunners' clash against Brentford, the Met Office has told supporters, 'heavy snow may cause some disruption over the weekend'. An official statement from the Met Office, declaring a 'yellow snow warning', reads: "There is a small chance that power cuts will occur and other services, such as mobile phone coverage, may be affected.

"There is a slight chance that some rural communities could become cut off. There is a chance of travel delays on roads with some stranded vehicles and passengers, along with delayed or cancelled rail and air travel."

The Met Office added: "Outbreaks of rain spreading northeastwards later on Saturday and overnight into Sunday will likely be preceded by a spell of snow on its northern flank. Whilst there is a fair bit of uncertainty as to how far north this may spread, and how long any snow will last, significant accumulations of snow are possible, especially (but not exclusively) on hills.

"Currently, parts of the Midlands, Wales and northern England are most at risk of disruption, where 5cm or more could accumulate fairly widely, with perhaps as much as 20-30 cm over high ground of Wales and/or the Pennines. This, accompanied by strengthening winds, may lead to drifting of lying snow.

"In addition, as milder air attempts to move northwards into southern and central areas, snow may turn to a spell of freezing rain for a time, adding to the risk of ice. If milder air is able to spread more bodily northwards, any snow in southern parts of the warning area may be relatively short-lived before turning to rain."

The Met Office also reminded supporters – and the general UK population – that 'wintry weather can cause delays and make driving conditions dangerous'. While the London and South East England area has been named as an affected area, the yellow warning has been described as 'very low likelihood and a medium impact'.
