Snow is on the forecast for tomorrow as a weather warning is issued by the Met Office.

An area of sleet and snow is expected to move south east across parts of England and Wales, lasting approximately two or three hours in any one place.

This includes over Hampshire, and lasts from midnight tonight until noon.

Where snow falls, one or two centimetres is likely for some, and perhaps as much as 5cm of snow is possible in a few spots, though this is expected to be in the north of England.

Some ice may form as a result of precipitation falling onto frozen surfaces, and icy patches will also develop quickly as sleet and the snow clears.

The Met Office is advising those travelling to leave five minutes earlier to avoid rushing, plan routes, check transport and traffic and amend plans if needed.
