UK faces wintry weekend with heavy rain and snow in the north - London Business News | Londonlovesbusiness.com
"Saturday will begin cold and bright, with widespread frost overnight. Most areas will see sunshine before clouds roll in from the west. By Saturday evening, rain moves in - turning to snow where cold Arctic air meets milder Atlantic weather. "Snow is likely ahead of the rain across northern England and Scotland and could reach lower levels at times Saturday night into Sunday," said Met Office Chief Forecaster Rebekah Hicks."
"The snow will gradually turn to rain as the front moves east. Coastal areas will feel the wind, and some rain could be heavy. Yellow National Severe Weather Warnings are in effect for central and northern parts of the UK. Rain and showers will continue, with strong winds especially in the north. A drier, colder day is expected before more rain sweeps in from the southwest."
Cold, bright conditions with widespread overnight frost will start Saturday, with sunshine across most areas before cloud cover moves in from the west. By Saturday evening, an approaching frontal system will bring rain that turns to snow where cold Arctic air clashes with milder Atlantic air. Snow is likely across northern England and Scotland and may reach lower levels at times Saturday night into Sunday. The snow will gradually change to rain as the front progresses east, with coastal areas experiencing strong winds and some heavy rain. Yellow National Severe Weather Warnings cover central and northern UK; further rain, strong winds and hill snow will continue into the following week.
