Britain looks set for a blustery, rainy and possibly snow-hit start to 2025, with much of the UK covered by yellow weather warnings for 1 January 1. There are three Met Office weather warnings in place across the day, covering all of England, Wales and Northern Ireland, as well as southern Scotland.

Only northern parts of Scotland are not covered by the warnings - though another yellow weather alert for rain and snow is in place until 11.59pm on December 31. Here's what forecasters are predicting across the UK over the next few days, including the start of the new year.

England. There are several yellow weather warnings covering different parts of England over the next few days, including one on Monday. That yellow alert for wind is in place for the North Pennines and Yorkshire Dales from 11am until 6pm. It warns of potential disruption to travel in the area and the potential for short-term power cuts.

Another yellow weather warning for wind comes into place from 7am on New Year's Eve. That covers the northeast of England, down towards Bridlington in East Yorkshire, and across towards Carlisle in the northwest. It warns of "strong westerly winds" that could lead to travel disruption on New Year's Eve.

All of England is then covered by a yellow weather alert for "very strong winds" from 9am on New Year's Day, with a chance of disruption to travel services, and a slight chance of damage to buildings. That warning is due to last until 6am. Areas of northern England, including Manchester, Sheffield, Leeds, York, and Carlisle are also covered by a yellow weather warning for "heavy and persistent" snow from 9am on New Year's Day until 3am on 2 January.
