Will there be a chance of snow in Britain next week? It's a question on the minds of many after a week of plummeting temperatures and extreme weather. The Met Office, the UK's national weather service, has weighed in with their verdict.
Southern parts of the country were hit hard by Storm Bert and Storm Conall, with heavy rain and flooding causing chaos. Sadly, the severe weather claimed two lives in South Wales and Northampton. And as the week progressed, the situation didn't improve. Today, the Met Office issued a yellow weather warning for fog, adding to the already dangerous conditions caused by freezing temperatures.
But what about snow? With the sudden drop in temperature, many are speculating about a possible white Christmas. However, the Met Office warns that even a slight change of just 1 degree Celsius can make the difference between snow and rain. So, it's too early to predict any snowfall for next week or even on Christmas day.
But that doesn't stop us from dreaming of a white Christmas. According to the Met Office, there is a chance of snow as we approach mid-December. The weather is expected to become less settled, with west or northwesterly winds bringing wet and windy spells. This could also mean a risk of snow, especially in hilly areas of the north.
But don't lose hope just yet. The weather in December can be unpredictable, and there may also be periods of calm and dry weather, particularly in the south. As we head into the weekend, the north can expect more rain and clouds, while the south may see some sunny spells. So, keep your fingers crossed for a white Christmas, but also be prepared for any type of weather.
