THE first snow fall of the season has hit Scotland amid an extended Met Office yellow weather warning.
Scots in the north have seen the first snow of winter 2024, with Glencoe Mountain Resort posting a video on social media writing: "That will be the start of the snow then!".
Snow was also reported on the A93 near Glenshee in Aberdeenshire.
It comes as the Met Office predicts around 4cm of snow falling across the Scottish Highlands, parts of Aberdeenshire and some parts of Stirling.
A yellow warning is in place for the Scottish Borders and much of the Highlands between 10am on Monday, November 18 and 10am on Tuesday, November 19.
Weather maps from WXCharts, meanwhile, predict the first snowfall will occur in the early hours of Sunday morning.
Deputy chief meteorologist Mark Sidaway said: “The high pressure that has been responsible for the mainly dry weather through much of this week will retrogress into the Atlantic as we get towards the weekend.
"This will gradually introduce more unsettled weather, initially in the north from Friday but more widely from Sunday.
“In addition to this increased rainfall, which could be heavy at times on Sunday, temperatures will also drop, especially for those in Scotland, as a northerly airflow develops, bringing colder Arctic air to some northern areas.
“This shift does introduce the possibility of snow, initially over high ground in the north from Sunday, with gusty winds also a potential hazard.
"There is a lot of uncertainty by Sunday, but there remain a number of scenarios which could bring some more widespread rain, along with some hill snow and stronger winds.
"Warnings for winter hazards are possible later in the weekend, so it’s important to stay up to date with the latest forecast.”
