A cold Easter weekend lies ahead
With Easter weekend almost here, there’s no doubt that lots of us will be travelling over the next few days. Thankfully, whilst the weather is going to stay cold, disruption due to snow is unlikely.
With Easter weekend almost here, there’s no doubt that lots of us will be travelling over the next few days. Thankfully, whilst the weather is going to stay cold, disruption due to snow is unlikely.
The cold weather continues as Easter weekend approaches, but at least for now, the snow has eased. However, there is a chance that it could return at the end of the week.
Throughout the day, I’ll be bringing you regular snow updates on this blog, with the latest on where the worst of the weather is, the effects it’s having and what is likely in the coming hours.
Winter has no intention of leaving us anytime soon, with more snow expected across a large swathe of the UK during the next few days. The worst affected areas could see 20-40cm of lying snow.
This week, the UK is going to be the battle ground between winter and spring, with milder air sitting to the south west and colder air lurking to the north east.
Winter isn’t done with us just yet and there could well be some more snow on the horizon next week. Why is the weather so cold at the moment?
Southern England has been spared the greatest impact of a snowstorm that is only 100 miles away. But how bad could it have been?
It seems like the brief taste of spring-like weather last weekend has cemented opinion that we’ve had enough of winter for this year.
During the last week, I’ve had lots of people saying that they’ve had enough of the cold and would happily welcome something spring-like with open arms. So, are there any signs of this happening?
After another cold weekend with further snow across the UK, it looks like temperatures will rise this week as milder air moves in off the Atlantic.
In the coming days, a battle will be taking place over us between cold air to the east and mild air to the west, with the threat of widespread snow during Sunday into Monday.
The latest weather models all hint at the cold weather continuing into the middle of next week, with the possibility of more significant snow later this weekend.
Whilst not all places will see snow this week, there will be a drop in temperature, very strong winds giving significant wind chill, along with frost and ice – especially at night.
A burst of energy from the jet stream has brought mild, wet and windy weather to our shores this week. However, next week, the cold weather is set to return.
Whilst the jet stream has roared back to life this week, with a return to mild, wet and windy weather, there are signs that in the coming weeks, there’ll be a trend to something colder again.
