Further details

Snow showers affecting high ground are expected to start to fall to low levels through Thursday evening and overnight. Due to the showery nature accumulations of snow will vary, but on low ground 1-2 cm is possible in places by Friday morning, while on hills above 300 metres accumulations of 2 to 5, perhaps very locally 10 cm are possible.
In addition to the snow temperatures will fall quickly, and this is likely to lead to ice on untreated surfaces.

Further details

Outbreaks of rain spreading eastwards on Saturday night will fall as snow initially, even to low levels for a time, before becoming confined to higher ground as milder air arrives from the west. Temporary snow accumulations of 1-3 cm will be possible at low levels, with 3-7 cm possible above about 150 m elevation, and perhaps 10-15 cm above 400 m. Areas sheltered to the north of high ground may see very little snow. Ice will be an additional hazard, particularly across northeast England and parts of Scotland where precipitation has the potential to fall on frozen ground leading to very slippery conditions.

Snow will turn increasingly to rain into Sunday morning, perhaps as a short spell of freezing rain in places, before eventually clearing to the east with a steady thaw of lying snow then setting in.
