The snow, which appears as purple on the map, is predicted to last until 9pm the same night. The darker the shade of purple, the thicker the snow, according to WX Charts.
Tuesday is expected to warm up with no snow expected until later in the week. More wintry weather will hit Leeds on Saturday, March 11, with flurries of snow thought to hit the region from 12am until 6am in Leeds. The snow will then reappear at 6pm and last until midnight.

The UK government has issued a rare cold weather alert with the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) and Met Office warning temperatures will be significantly colder from Monday, March 6, until Wednesday, March 8.
Dr Agostinho Sousa, head of extreme events and health protection at UKHSA, said: "During periods like this, it is important to check in on family, friends and relatives who may be more vulnerable to the cold weather, as it can have a serious impact on health.
