    A band of snow is expected to move in from the north-west in the early hours of the morning. Higher ground, particularly around Pateley Bridge, could see travel disruption.

    The Met Office has issued a Boxing Day weather warning for snow and strong winds in the Harrogate district.

    The warning comes into effect just after midnight and is in place until midday tomorrow.

    A band of snow is expected to move in from the north-west in the early hours, turning to rain later on in the morning.

    The warning says:

    "Snow and strong winds are expected, leading to possible disruption, mainly to travel over higher ground.
    "Some roads and railways likely to be affected by snow or ice, leading to longer journey times by car, as well as by bus and possibly train services.
    "Some short term loss of power and other services is possible."


    Yellow warnings are less severe than amber and red warnings so it is unlikely there will be widespread disruption but it is possible some parts the district, especially higher areas around Pateley Bridge, may experience early morning travel problems.

    The cold weather is unlikely to last. Temperatures are expected to be as high as 13 degrees centigrade by Wednesday and stay extremely mild into the new year.
