A statement on the Met Office website notes: “An area of snow is expected to extend northeastwards from parts of Wales across the Midlands and into parts of northern England on Tuesday evening and night, persisting into Wednesday morning. Accumulations of 3-8 cm are likely in places, perhaps 10-15 cm very locally on high ground. The snow should ease gradually through Wednesday morning. The public should be aware of the risk of disruption to transport.”

As you would expect temperatures are expected to drop over the next few days, with lows of -3 degrees forecast for tomorrow.

Currently there is no snow forecast for Thursday, however the cold weather is set to continue for the remainder of the week – with sleet and snow forecast for Friday.
