A powerful snowstorm is set to hit the UK in the coming days, with weather maps predicting up to 13cm of snowfall in some areas. Forecasters warn that this storm, rolling in from the west of Portugal, could bring significant disruptions as it sweeps across the country on March 9.

According to weather charts from Ventusky, the heaviest snowfall is expected to hit the southwest of England and the Midlands. Swindon and surrounding towns are predicted to see as much as five inches (13cm) of snow, while Northampton could be blanketed in up to four inches. Leicester and Peterborough may see around three inches, while Birmingham and Lincoln could get a lighter dusting of just an inch.
