As the UK gears up for the festive season, the weather is set to take a turn with a mix of conditions leading up to Christmas, including strong winds and a trend towards colder weather, especially in the north.

Tuesday is expected to bring rain to much of the south, while the north will see frequent showers interspersed with sunny spells. In Scotland, these showers could turn to snow over the hills.
