The UK experienced several snow and ice warnings over the weekend as Arctic air spread. Monday will bring blustery showers with occasional brighter spells, while wintry showers continue in Scotland and snow accumulates on higher ground.
By Monday night, colder Arctic air will spread south, lowering snow levels in Scotland and increasing the risk of ice. Some snow showers are also expected across the North York Moors.
