## Summary

The Met Office has issued a 12-hour yellow snow warning for Tuesday morning in parts of northern England and southern Scotland, as colder Arctic air meets a weather system bringing milder air and rain. The warning matters because snow, ice and strong winds could make travel hazardous and cause disruption, particularly in upland areas.

The alert runs from midnight to noon and covers parts of the East and West Midlands, northern England and southern Scotland. Forecasters say disruptive snow is most likely above 300 metres in northern England and 150 to 200 metres in southern Scotland, with gusts reaching 50 to 60mph; temperatures could fall to -8C. A separate ice warning applies from Monday evening into Tuesday morning, while most people are expected to see rain rather than wintry weather.
