WEATHER: Yellow warning for snow in East Midlands
An area of rain, sleet and snow will come southeastwards into the area later lasting into Friday, April 29, settling with between 5-10cm likely in higher areas.
The chief forecaster said: "A depression moving eastwards across northern parts of Northern England on Thursday evening will bring cold air in its wake, causing showery outbreaks of rain to turn to snow, principally on hills but also to low levels at times."
