Wintry conditions will be slowly easing their grip on most parts of Yorkshire throughout the weekend, but a return to colder conditions for many is likely in the early part of next week.

The Met Office has announced that despite snow easing up, districts throughout the county are set to see a return to the colder weather at the start of next week.

Throughout the week, temperatures have plummeted within the district, with the UK Health Security Agency placing a Level 3 Cold Weather Alert for the whole of England, which is expected to remain in place until 9am on Monday.

Daniel Rudman, Met Office deputy chief forecaster, said: “There is an increasingly strong signal for colder air to once again feed into the north of the UK during Monday.

“This flow is likely to extend southwards with much of the UK likely to be under the influence of colder conditions overnight into Tuesday.

“Tuesday is set to remain a cold day, but it is not expected to be as cold as conditions have been this week.”

Met Office chief forecasters are also set to review making changes to the pattern of National Severe Weather Warnings, which saw Yorkshire given yellow weather warnings for the weekend.
