Wednesday morningHeavy snow causes chaos on Luxembourg's roads

RTL Today
Meteolux issued a yellow alert for Wednesday as heavy snow fell across Luxembourg.

Winter is far from over! While the week already kicked off with a clear drop in temperatures and some snow, Wednesday has seen plenty of snowfall already.

The alert will be in effect for the whole country until 11 am, with “4 to 8 cm of snow potentially accumulating in the north and 1 to 2 cm in the south.”

Temperatures are expected to start at 0°C on Wednesday before rising to 9°C in the afternoon. The following days, a renewed increase in temperatures should keep the risk of more snow at bay, but the sky is still expected to remain rainy and grey until Sunday.
