Met Office gives snow verdict for Leeds as huge blizzard expected to hit UK

The Met Office has responded to fears of a blizzard and snow which is expected to hit the UK next week.

There is a 90 per cent snow risk and freezing cold temperatures are expected to cover the UK from next week, maps from WXCharts show. This comes as forecasters warn of a 'polar vortex' on its way - there could also be layers of snow inches-high from Thursday, February 9.

The Met Office has painted a less dramatic picture for most of Leeds and the rest of the region, saying the city can expect mostly fine weather with sunny spells with a risk of coastal gales on Tuesday.
