4 May
Summary
- Temperatures to drop as low as -3C in Scotland.

Parts of Britain will experience a sharp temperature drop to as low as -3C by Wednesday, May 6th, signaling a significant change from recent warmer conditions. WXCharts weather maps indicate that Scotland, particularly areas around Inverness, will face the coldest conditions. Major English cities such as Manchester and Birmingham are forecast to see lows of 2C on Wednesday evening, while London and other southern areas may experience around 6C.
The Met Office confirms a cooler period as northerly winds establish, bringing scattered showers and sunny spells. This shift is expected to bring below-average temperatures to the UK and much of northern and western Europe on Wednesday, which is predicted to be the coolest day of the week. While southern parts of the UK might see warmer air later in the week due to a southerly wind shift, the north is expected to remain cooler with a risk of showers.
