Significant snowfall could make travelling conditions tricky on Monday morning, at the start of the first normal working week after the Christmas break.
The Met office said: “Snow showers are expected to push further inland across Wales, parts of north-west England, the West Midlands and south-west England during Sunday evening.
“Along windward coasts, some rain and sleet is likely, but inland showers will fall as snow.
“Whilst not all locations in the warning area will see snow, 1-3 cm could develop in many places by Monday morning, with the potential for 5-8 cm to build up in a few locations, particularly across inland and higher parts of Wales.
“Icy stretches are likely to form widely.”
