Overview
- Colder air is expected to arrive Sunday into Monday, bringing a reasonable chance of sleet and snow in northern Scotland first, according to the Met Office.
- The risk then extends into Northern Ireland, northern England and North Wales by Tuesday, with nights turning sub-zero and daytime temperatures several degrees below average.
- Official guidance highlights lows near −4C in parts of Scotland on Monday, with widespread overnight readings around 0–2C across central areas by midweek.
- WX Charts maps suggest heavy snow could sweep western Scotland early Tuesday and reach central and eastern areas by midday, though precise locations remain uncertain.
- OpenWeather points to early-week snow in Scotland and the North East, possible Tuesday snow in Wales and a small chance of brief flurries as far south as Gloucestershire or London, while the Met Office warns of ice and the potential for a more widespread wintry spell later in the week.
