The Met Office warning runs from midnight on Monday, January 5 until 11am on Tuesday, January 6, and covers the whole region. The weather experts say snow and ice may cause some disruption on Tuesday morning, particularly to travel. "A few heavier bursts are possible over the Southern Uplands, the Lake District and the northern Pennines. "Most places will see no more than one-two centimetres of snow but a few places over higher ground in the Lake District, northern Pennines and Southern Uplands may see up to five centimetres. "This will fall onto frozen surfaces resulting in some icy conditions and could lead to some disruption, particularly to travel over higher routes in the north of the warning area."
