The warning, which is in place from 6pm on Wednesday to 2pm on Thursday, has been updated to remove some areas of the North East.

The only parts of the region now affected are County Durham and Northumberland.

The warning states: "Showers of rain, sleet and snow will move south across parts of Scotland, north Wales and north England through Wednesday evening and into Thursday.

"Whilst not all areas will see these where they do fall ice is expected to form.

"The showers are also likely to fall as snow at times, mainly above 200 m but to some lower levels, particularly on Thursday morning over southern Scotland.

"Some accumulations of 1-3 cm are likely, again mainly over higher ground, but 5 cm or more is possible over parts of southern Scotland."
