Weather UK forecast LIVE – Met Office issues yellow SNOW warning for tomorrow as freezing temperatures hit

FREEZING conditions are set to continue with experts predicting more snow will fall this week as temperatures plummet to -2C.

The Met Office have issued a yellow weather warning for much of Scotland and it will last from 4pm tomorrow to 11am Wednesday morning.

The Met Office have said: “Persistent rain over northern Scotland will increasingly turn to snow over high ground during Tuesday, then perhaps to lower levels in the afternoon and evening.

“This is likely to bring some accumulations above 100-200m with 3-7cm in places and perhaps 10cm above 300m.

“There is some uncertainty by Tuesday night but rain and snow is likely to become focused further north across Scotland with a small chance of 2-5 cm settling at low levels by Wednesday morning and 15 cm above 200-300m – this most likely across Caithness, Sutherland and Ross and Cromarty.

“The band of rain and snow is then likely to move back southwards across Scotland during Wednesday, slowly easing.”

Further wintry showers are then expected to hit the north of England on Thursday and Friday as the freezing weather continues.

A Met Office forecaster said: “Thursday and through the weekend is likely to be cold in the North with wintry showers, and a risk of snow on the edge of rain bands in the Midlands.

“Widespread frosts are expected in the North, with some icy patches.”
