What weather is expected?
Overnight showers and longer spells of rain, and sleet, are expected to turn to snow on higher ground, according to forecasters.
Some roads, and possibly railways, may be affected by snow, leading to longer journey times for travellers.
Possible icy surfaces may lead to increased likelihood of injuries or accidents.
Ice may form on some inland and upland roads, and road users are advised to remain cautious of this.
Snow is likely to accumulate on lower ground too, according to The Met Office.
The warning follows an earlier yellow warning that was in place on Tuesday and Wednesday this week.
