In the north, Britain is all set to be plagued by rain and snow while warnings of floods have also been given for the southern parts. However, a yellow warning has been issued for snow and rain in northern parts that could cause a lot of disruptions and time travel. Northern Scotland will be affected by scattered snow showers. Rain and hill snow is expected to start across southern Scotland and extending up to Northern Scotland till the evening hours today. Due to the snow, delays to travel and public transport could be possible on higher ground. Spray and flooding on low level roads will make journey times longer.

Bad weather will remain confined to the Northern Isles and the far north of the mainland. Elsewhere there will be clear skies. Conditions will be severely better in the south as the north sees dismal weather.
There will be lots going on over the next few days, as a slow return to slightly more normal temperatures will be seen and a lot of rainfall and snow melting at lower levels.
