Football November 19, 2024 10:39 AM

The Met Office has issued an updated yellow weather warning for the UK tonight- with snow that is set to bring disruption to 29 areas.

A period of rain, sleet and snow will occur during Monday night and into Tuesday morning, according to the forecasters. This could lead to possible travel delays on roads stranding some vehicles and passengers. In addition, delays or cancellations to rail and air travel are possible.

The said: "A period of rain, sleet and snow will occur during Monday night and into Tuesday morning.

"The most likely scenario is for most of the snow to accumulate on hills, with 5 to 10 cm possible above 200 metres and perhaps as much as 15 to 20 cm above 300 metres. There is a chance of snow settling at lower levels, where 5 to 10 cm would prove much more disruptive - this remains uncertain, but seems most likely across parts of Derbyshire.

"As rain, sleet and snow clears from the north of the warning area by early Tuesday morning, ice may form on untreated surfaces."
