Remember we mentioned earlier this week that council gritters, a familiar sight on the roads during icy weather, had been put on standby in West Yorkshire due to the heatwave?
The grit lorries are ready to spread crushed rock dust if the roads start to melt, with the dust being used to create a non-stick surface in a bid to limit damage to the road surface.

Advice for local residents expected to be affected by next week's bin collectors strike in Kirklees has been issued by the council.
The week-long strike, which is due to start on Tuesday, is part of an ongoing dispute between the council and Unison members amid claims some workers have been refused leave to help dying relatives or sick children.
In the north of the district - all of Dewsbury, Batley and Cleckheaton - bin collections will be broadly as normal with residents asked to put out grey or green bins as normal.
In the south of the district - Huddersfield and the Colne and Holme valleys - only grey bins will be collected, the council says.

Electrifying a busy part of the rail network from Yorkshire to London should be considered again, according to a group of MPs.
The Commons Transport Committee says electrification of the Midland Mainline, which runs from Sheffield to London, should be re-examined to see if rail companies could make it more cost-effective.
The government scrapped the upgrade last year, saying improvements such as creating less pollution could be achieved in other ways.
It was thought the project would cost £500m.
Quote MessageIf the industry can come up with more cost-effective ways to complete electrification, there should be a rolling programme and the Midland Mainline should be electrified."

Police have warned teenagers they face getting a criminal record after a "spike" in antisocial behaviour in Pontefract,
Officers used a dispersal order in the Chequerfields area of the town last weekend after a number of complaints were made about young people causing trouble.
Eleven "directions to leave" orders were also given to teenagers and any who were under 16 were taken home and spoken to in front of their parents.
Dispersal powers allow officers to disperse groups of two people or more if they believe their presence or behaviour has resulted, or is likely to result, in anyone being harassed, intimidated, alarmed or distressed.
Insp Paul Sullivan said: "Dispersal orders are not taken out lightly, but in this situation we felt it was necessary to send a message to those involved.
"Those involved should be warned that we know who they are and if poor behaviour persists they could ultimately find themselves with criminal records."
