Heavy snow predicted for upland Moray on Easter Monday

A snow warning has been issued for much of Moray and the Highlands.

The Met Office yellow warning will come into force at 6pm on Sunday and remain in place until midnight on Monday.

The snow showers are expected to cause travel disruption, and could lead falls of up to six inches on higher ground.

A Met Office spokesman said: "A very cold northerly airflow will become established across the UK through Sunday night and Monday morning.

"Very strong north to northwest winds will spread hail and snow showers inland across many areas, but the most frequent showers will affect northern Scotland.

"The strong winds will cause drifting of lying snow, and blizzard conditions at times on higher ground."
