A band of rain, sleet, and increasingly snow, will push north on Thursday (February 8) bringing up to 2cm snow at lower-levels, 2-5cm on ground above 200m, and perhaps as much as 15-25cm above 400m, along with a risk of some icy conditions, according to the Met Office.
The snow will ease later in the day, and may turn back to rain or drizzle, especially in the south and east of the East Midlands region.
There is some uncertainty with respect to the rain and snow boundary, and the northern limit of the snow, and so details may change in the coming days as confidence increases in these aspects.
