Forecasters give verdict amid fears Atlantic jet stream could bring 'wall of snow'

Forecasters have responded to concerns a combination of a cyclonic stream in the Atlantic and the jet stream could bring a 'wall of snow' to the UK. A cold weather alert is currently in place starting from Sunday, February 6, at 6pm.

However, The Express reports there could be more inclement weather on Saturday, February 11, if a worst case scenario turns into reality. There is a larger margin for error in long-term forecasts but one expert believes there is a risk of 'widespread snow'.

Exacta Weather’s James Madden said: “Some computer models are now favouring a bitter easterly blast later next week, and this could bring the risk of widespread snow. This is expected ahead of next weekend and if it happens, temperatures will plunge across the country.
