A yellow warning is in force for snow and ice overnight on Thursday and into Friday for Scotland. Snow amounts of a few centimetres even on lower roads could be in store by Friday morning.
On hills above 300m there could be up to 2 to 5cm, with 10cm possible in places.
In addition to the snow, ice will also be a hazard.
A second yellow warning for snow and ice is also in force for northern England and the north Midlands. Here snow will fall at low levels but is not likely to settle below 200 metres. These higher levels could see 2 to 5cm and it’s expected that a few locations above 300m may see as much as 10 cm.
This is likely to cause disruption on routes across the Pennines and for Derbyshire and Cumbria. With temperatures plummeting below freezing overnight, the combination of snow and ice could lead to treacherous conditions on untreated roads and pavements.
Saturday will start cold and frosty with the whole of the UK seeing some sunshine and should be the driest day for a good while.
However Saturday night and Sunday brings a renewed risk of snow, quite widely and even at low levels. Keep checking the BBC Weather website and app for all the latest details.
