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.
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?
Following my blog yesterday about winter biting back this weekend, I just wanted to give you a brief update on my thoughts for which places are most likely to see some snow this weekend and how much.
Next week will see winter return with a real sting in its tail, providing a wintry combination of snow, frost and ice.
A taste of spring for most places this week, but don’t be fooled, winter is lurking and is likely to be back with us beyond next weekend.
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.
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.
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.
As the UK enters its second week of this wintry spell, there aren’t many places that haven’t seen any snow. But for how long is the wintry weather set to last?
The cold air has arrived and it’s here to stay for now, but how much snow will fall into the early part of next week?
During the last 24 hours, there has been a somewhat clearer and more consistent signal from the weather computer models that a spell of very cold weather is likely, starting this weekend.
