Met Office Issues Snow And Flood Warnings
The Met Office has issued a 'yellow' weather warning for many parts of the UK and Ireland.
Many parts are on snow alert and up to 10cm could fall in some places, according to the Met Office.
Amber weather warnings have been issued for Scotland and the north of England.
The Met Office snow and ice alert said: "Accumulations of 2-4 cm (0.8 to 1.6ins) of snow are likely above about 100m, but also to low levels locally, and more widely over the northern half of Scotland, where more than 10cm (4ins) is likely above 300m.
"During Tuesday the risk of snow extends into northern England, especially across the Pennines and higher parts of Cumbria. Meanwhile, a more persistent spell of sleet and snow may settle at low levels across Scotland on Tuesday night and into Wednesday morning.
"The public should be aware of the risk of disruption to transport."
Flood alerts have also been issued for parts of the south-east due to heavy rain.
