Stockport, England, United Kingdom Severe Weather Alertstar_ratehome

Information on update: The warning start time has been brought forward to cater for snow showers that may cause impacts earlier in the afternoon across north Wales and northwest England. Snow showers are expected to push further inland across Wales, parts of northwest England, the West Midlands and southwest England during Sunday afternoon and evening. Along windward coasts, some rain and sleet is likely, but inland showers will fall as snow. Whilst not all locations in the warning area will see snow, 1-3 cm could develop in many places by Monday morning, with the potential for 5-8 cm to build up in a few locations, particularly across inland and higher parts of Wales. Icy stretches are likely to form widely.

Information on update: Whilst snow showers will ease on Monday night, an ice risk will continue through to Tuesday morning with the warning end time extended. The warning area has also been extended into East Lothian and more of the Scottish Borders. Whilst not all areas will be affected, scattered snow showers will move inland from the North Sea during Monday, giving some small accumulations in places. Where snow showers are most frequent, this most likely across southeast Scotland, parts of North and East Yorkshire and Redcar and Cleveland, fresh accumulations of 5-8 cm will be possible in a few places. Lightning and gusty winds may be additional hazards, especially near windward coasts.

Snow showers should become more isolated through Monday evening, but a risk of ice will persist through Monday night into Tuesday morning as temperatures fall below freezing.
