A snow weather warning has been issued for Kenilworth this week.

The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for snow from 3am on Thursday (February 8) to 3am Friday for the Midlands and north of England.

Meteorologists said there is a small chance that power cuts will occur and other services, such as mobile phone coverage, may be affected.

There is a slight chance that "some rural communities could become cut off" and travel delays on roads and rail are also possible.

Met Office deputy chief meteorologist Chris Almond said: "While the early part of this week will see some rain, at times heavy, gradually sinking southwards, there's an increased signal for wintry hazards as we move through the week as cold air from the north moves over the UK.

"It's from Thursday that the snow risk becomes more potentially impactful, as mild air attempts to move back in from the south, bumping into the cold air and increasing the chance of snow developing on the leading edge.

"While there are still lots of details to work out, the initial snow risk looks highest in northern England and Wales from Thursday. 1-2cm is possible to low levels, with 10-20cm possible over the highest ground within the warning area. This snow will likely gradually transition to sleet and rain later on from the south."
