Snow will fall to low levels at first away from coasts before becoming confined to ground above around 300 metres. 1-2 cm of fresh snow accumulations are possible in places, with 2-5cm of fresh snow accumulations on ground above 200-300 metres, mainly in western Scotland and hills northern England.
