Britain is set to experience a prolonged period of wintry weather, with forecasts indicating up to 144 hours of near-continuous snowfall across large swathes of the country. Weather maps from WXCharts suggest that at least one area of the UK will be covered in snow or experiencing snowfall between 6 am on March 1 and 6 am on March 7.
The heaviest snowfall appears to be concentrated in Scotland, with nearly the entire region affected, except for the eastern city of Aberdeen, which seems set to avoid the worst of the conditions. Northern Ireland is also predicted to see snowfall at various points during this extended cold spell. Meanwhile, most of Wales is expected to be blanketed in wintry precipitation as well.
