The summer heatwave may still be fresh in the memory, but winter could soon take an icy hold on some parts of the UK with snow predicted in a matter of weeks.
Weather forecasters say that large parts Scotland could see around 3cm of the white stuff in a couple of weeks’ time. British Weather Services maps show wintry weather moving south west across the North Sea from Norway on October 19, forming into what looks to be sleet or snow over central Scotland, with a good chunk falling on the Scottish Highlands, reports the Daily Star.
Senior meteorologist Jim Dale says temperatures are set to drop to -2C and the mountainous regions should experience some snow. He told the Express: “It will be colder, especially on the mountains, about 2C to 3C which is enough for sleety stuff and maybe for a bit of snow or sleet. Some of that will be sleet, I think.
