UK weather: 'Arctic freeze' set to hit bringing six inches of snow

A weather warning for snow is in place for parts of the UK today (April 5) while other areas are set for sunshine, in what has been described as a 'weather divide.'

Sleet, snow and sub-zero temperatures are forecast for Scotland as Arctic air moves in, while it could rise as high as 16C in the south of England thanks to a high pressure system from the Atlantic.

BBC weather maps shows that 10 to 15 centimetres of snow could fall amidst freezing temperatures in the north and east of Scotland today. The cold blast is set to head further south during the week bringing sub zero temperatures for most of the country by Wednesday and Thursday.
