A yellow weather warning for snow has been put in place for Tuesday in Milton Keynes, with residents also being told to expect very low temperatures and the potential for disruption.
The warning is in place for this coming Tuesday and is in force for the entire day across Milton Keynes and North Buckinghamshire.
Meanwhile, a more severe amber warning for snow is set to impact areas close to our city including Kettering and Northampton at the same time.
The Chief Forecaster at the Met Office, who issued the warning, has said: "Snow showers are expected through Tuesday, with the potential for a more organised area of snow to push southwest across parts of England and Wales. Separate Amber warnings are being issued to cover those areas which currently look most likely to see impacts."
"There is the potential for 5-10 cm of snow in places though nearby locations may see only small accumulations of 0-2 cm. The warning area has been adjusted to take into account latest indications. Strong winds may lead to drifting of lying snow (and severe wind chill) especially over hills."
Regarding the warning, the Met Office have added: "There is the potential for travel delays on roads, with some stranded vehicles and passengers, as well as delays or cancellations to rail and air travel."
"Some rural communities could become cut off. Power cuts may also occur and other services, such as mobile phones, may be affected."
