Snow, rain, and wind is set to hit areas still affected by Storm Arwen power outages, the Met Office says.

The Met Office predicts low temperatures of between 4C and 6C , as well as some gale-force winds over the coming days.

However, on Monday and Tuesday the UK is set to see more wind, rain, and snow - with strong winds expected on Wednesday too., which will be 12 days after the storm's 98mph gusts tore down electricity lines.In a tweet, the prime minister said he has spoken with those leading the response to the storm, including the military commander on the ground and local community leaders in Northumbria, Durham and Darlington.

"I reiterated to those I spoke to that the government is ready to further support their work in any way we can." "Other than that, a fair bit of rain, some hill snow, and some reasonably strong winds - certainly aiding to slow down the process of reconnecting supplies and getting to the more remote locations to clear trees and so forth."
