Major weather change to hit from this weekend – London Business News | Londonlovesbusiness.com

The Met Office has said that from this weekend there will be a major change to the weather which could bring disruption for some next week.

High pressure will bring cloudy conditions for many with some fog overnight and on Friday it will be windier in the north and winds will pick up late on Friday brining a cold Arctic Air.

Met Office Deputy Chief Meteorologist Rebekah Hicks said, “A notable early winter cold spell will arrive across the north from Sunday and will likely reach all parts of the UK by midweek.

“Temperatures will drop as a northerly airflow develops, bringing in colder Arctic air. This introduces the possibility of snow, initially over high ground in the north from Sunday, with gusty winds also a potential hazard.”

Rebekah added, “There is a lot of uncertainty in what might happen after Sunday, but there are a number of scenarios which could bring some more widespread rain, along with some hill snow and stronger winds.

“It is possible that there may be some more widespread snowfall across lower ground, but the chance of this for any given region is low at this stage.

“What we do know is that the whole of the UK is likely to experience a spell of several days of cold, potentially disruptive weather next week.

“Warnings for wintry hazards, including snow and ice, are possible, so it’s important to stay up to date with the latest forecast.”
