Another snow warning has been issued by the Met Office for much of Aberdeenshire and Moray overnight tonight.

The agency's latest yellow alert comes into force at 7pm on Tuesday and will remain in effect until 10am on Wednesday.

Forecasters are warning that snow and hail showers will fall even down to sea level, and that strong winds could spark drifting and lead to local transport disruption.

A Met Office spokesman said: "The cold northerly airflow will bring further snow and hail showers across much of northern Scotland.

"Snow amounts of around one to three centimetres are likely at all levels and, in addition, strong winds will lead to some drifting.

"Showers will become both lighter and less frequent through Wednesday morning.”

The warning also covers Inverness, the Black Isle, Loch Ness, the Monadhliath Mountains, all of Caithness and Sutherland, virtually all of Ross-shire, and the Northern Isles.
