THE Met Office has issued a fresh weather warning for snow for the north of Scotland.
Most of the Highland region, as well as Moray and Aberdeenshire, will likely be hit by snow from Tuesday afternoon at 4pm (April 5) to Wednesday morning at 11am, which may cause some disruption to travel.
A Met Office spokesperson said: "There is some uncertainty by Tuesday night but rain and snow is likely to become focused further north across Scotland with a small chance of two to five centimetres settling at low levels by Wednesday morning and 15cm above 200-300m – this most likely across Caithness, Sutherland and Ross and Cromarty. The band of rain and snow is then likely to move back southwards across Scotland during Wednesday, slowly easing."
They have warned of a small chance of travel delays on roads with some stranded vehicles and passengers, along with delayed or cancelled rail and air travel, as well as a slight chance that some rural communities could become cut off and a small chance that power cuts will occur with other services, such as mobile phone coverage, possibly affected.
Untreated pavements and cycle paths may also become impassable.
More information is available on the Met Office's official website.
