Leeds weather hour by hour forecast as heavy rain and melting snow pose flood risk

More bad weather is expected in Leeds as the Met Office with yellow weather warning for snow, ice and rain in place.

Heavy rain is expected throughout the rest of the day but a warning for snow and ice is in place until 23.59pm.

The 42-hour yellow weather warning covers Leeds and large parts of Yorkshire.

The Met Office has issued the warning from 6pm today (Tuesday) until noon on Thursday, and warns the heavy rain and snowmelt may lead to some flooding and travel disruption.

It states: “Following earlier heavy snowfall, a period of heavy rain late Tuesday and overnight into early Wednesday will lead to a relatively rapid thaw.
