UK Snow Alert: First Flurries Arriving This Week!

Snow showers are anticipated to reach parts of the UK this week, with the Met Office indicating potential snowfall starting as early as Wednesday. These wintry showers could affect lower ground in northern Scotland and the Northern Isles, primarily Shetland, during Wednesday night and into Thursday. However, it is expected that snow will only settle on higher ground, which is considered normal for this time of year.

Earlier in the week, yellow weather warnings for fog were active across England on Monday and Tuesday. By Wednesday, colder conditions are predicted to begin affecting the north, with showers moving south across Scotland that may turn wintry in the far northeast. Strong winds are also expected in the far northeast. These colder conditions are forecasted to spread further south into England later in the week.
