A massive snowstorm is set to hit the UK, affecting 12 major cities in England. Expect disruptions as heavy snowfall blankets the region.
London: The UK is bracing for a huge snowstorm. It’s expected to stretch over 700 miles. Twelve major cities in England will likely be affected.
These cities include London, Brighton, Oxford, and Milton Keynes. Birmingham, Nottingham, and Lincoln are also on the list. Manchester, Sheffield, and Leeds will face snow too.
Newcastle and Carlisle are at risk, along with Edinburgh and Glasgow. That makes a total of 12 cities. Some weather experts are skeptical about the predictions.
Netweather has downplayed the storm in its latest outlook. They say high pressure will dominate central Europe next week. This will bring milder winds across the UK.
However, Northern Ireland and western Scotland might see some frontal systems. These could weaken as they move east. Expect occasional colder weather in northern and western Scotland.
Central and southern England may experience colder spells with overnight frosts. This is especially true when clear skies and light winds combine.
Temperatures in Scotland could be 2°C above normal. In the north-east, they might even reach 3°C above normal. Southern England will likely see temperatures just above freezing.
