Snow showers, with strong winds and icy conditions will make travelling difficult, especially over the hills and in northern coastal areas.
Snow showers already affecting some parts, especially hills, will become more widespread later on Wednesday before slowly starting to become less frequent and less intense later on Thursday. The heaviest and most frequent snow will tend to be over hills and mountains as well as in northern coastal areas. Several centimetres of snow are expected over the Highlands and Grampians whilst at low levels snow cover will be smaller and patchier in nature with some places, especially coastal areas, seeing little lying snow. Conditions will also be windy and icy stretches are still expected where snow does not settle.
Icy patches developing with wintry showers also affecting some areas.
Icy patches are expected to develop later Wednesday evening or overnight over southern Scotland and Northern Ireland and during the early hours of Thursday over England and and Wales. There will also be some wintry showers about, mainly over hills and mountains, but also to some lower levels at times, most likely in parts of Scotland and northern, eastern and central England. With the exception of high ground, most places will not see any snow settling.
