A Met Office spokesman said: ‘A polar maritime air mass will feed in behind the rain on Monday, turning things colder and windy with frequent showers bringing some snow.
‘There could be power cuts and public transport delays come Monday and Tuesday.
‘Mostly in the north, all of Scotland and parts of Northern Ireland will bare the brunt of it.’
And there is a chance that wet weather could return on Thursday, with wind and rain possibly hitting the south of England.
Meteorological Office forecaster Emma Sharples said: ‘Cold air is set to spread across the country overnight into Monday. On Monday night and through Tuesday in Scotland and Northern Ireland we have issued a weather warning of possible hail and snow, with up to four inches possible above 200 metres.
‘In England and Wales, we are looking at a mixture of sunshine and blustery showers with some hail, sleet and snow mixed in, which will continue towards the end of the week. Snow showers are most likely on the hills, mountains and moors but no major accumulations are likely.’
