Met Office: Dry and cloudy across the UK<\/h3>\n

The Met Office has predicted when the UK’s big freeze will end as it’s been forecasted some parts of the UK could be hit by ‘double the average snowfall’.<\/p>\n

The forecaster has pinpointed when and where it expects snow to fall as the mercury is set to plummet with a chilling blast of cold weather on its way. Met Office Deputy Chief Forecaster Helen Caughey said snow won’t be widespread in the forecaster’s latest update.<\/p>\n

She said: “Already there is a lot of media speculation about the prospects for snow later this week and for a white Christmas. Whilst it is too early to give any indications for Christmas, some colder weather is likely for the end of the week, and into the weekend.”<\/p>\n

She added there is a “reasonably strong” signal for lower temperatures across the UK by the weekend, but it isn\u2019t guaranteed, and the lower temperatures don\u2019t mean widespread snow.<\/p>\n

However, at the start of next week, temperatures are set to get milder for a short period of time. According to the Met Office, temperatures will finally reach double figures again in the UK next Monday at 12noon – in the south west of England, weather maps show.<\/p>\n

Ms Caughey said there is a 70 percent chance areas in southern England could experience overnight frosts and a general drop in temperature.<\/p>\n

She cautioned: “However, there is still a 30 percent chance the colder conditions won\u2019t get that far south. Any falling snow is likely to be confined to the far northeast, and hills and mountains of Scotland.”<\/p>\n

The Met Office’s outlook has a weakening band of rain moving south during Thursday (November 23) and Friday (November 24) with colder but brighter conditions following.<\/p>\n

It adds that it will be largely dry for many on Saturday (November 25), but wintry showers will be possible in the northeast.<\/p>\n
