Most of Scotland is expected to see either snow or hail. Meanwhile parts of England including Newcastle, Manchester, Leeds and Sheffield will also see bouts of hail, weather maps showed.

The snow and ice is expected to make way for rain by Thursday morning (December 7). More snow and hail is expected in Scotland on Thursday and Friday, while the rest of the country will continue to see rain.

The Met Office said many of the downpours would be fairly light, however. It said on its website: "Frost and fog clearing then bright spells on Wednesday. Wet and windy weather arriving from the southwest, pushing north and east into Thursday and Friday, with some initial hill snow."

It comes after the forecaster issued several yellow weather warnings for this week. More than two inches of rainfall could be expected in the UK tomorrow threatening to bring chaos, the Daily Star previously reported.

The warning continued: "Flooding of a few homes and businesses is possible." It also noted "flooding on roads" may make "journey times longer".
