Some drifting may occur on cross-Pennine routes in the strong to gale winds.

A deepening area of low pressure is expected to track east across the UK during Wednesday night and into Thursday.

Across parts of the north, a spell of persistent and perhaps heavy snow may develop. This could see up to eight centimetres of snow accumulate in places, with up to 20cm over high ground.

The Chief Forecaster said: "There is still significant uncertainty regarding the extent and location of any heavy snowfall, at this stage parts of northern and central Scotland appear most at risk."
