Model Maps Flag October 10 Snow Risk for Parts of Scotland

Forecasters caution that the longer-range model signal remains uncertain.

Overview

  • WX Charts using Met Desk data and recent GFS runs show a localized snowfall scenario in northern Scotland around October 10.
  • Some charts depict rates near 2 cm per hour with an indicated start around midnight, though these hour-by-hour details are model projections.
  • Areas highlighted on the maps include parts of Perthshire, Inverness, and Ross and Cromarty, with lower elevations elsewhere more likely to see rain.
  • The Met Office outlook through early October points to slow-moving patterns with high pressure near the UK and low pressure to the north, keeping confidence low.
  • BBC Weather and other forecasters note disagreement among longer-range models, expecting near-normal daytime temperatures and no harsh cold.
