Nothing says Spring quite like snow.

Higher mountain ranges in Scotland will be dusted by snow, forecasters say Winter will have one final hurrah as rain and snow are set to drench Scotland on Tuesday. The Met Office warns that from overnight Monday into Tuesday, up to 50mm of rain and 20cm of snow will land in northern Scotland. The national weather service has issued a yellow weather warning for 12am to 12pm on Tuesday.

‘At moderate elevations snow is more likely, mainly 1-2cm of slushy deposits, but 2-5cm possible in some places affecting higher transport routes,’ the Met Office says. ‘At higher elevations 10-20cm may fall causing travel issues on higher routes.’ A yellow weather warning means it’s ‘likely’ the snow and rain will disrupt people’s lives in small ways Weather officials say there is a ‘small chance’ that power cuts may occur and other services, such as mobile phone signal, will be affected.
