MARCH weather
Snow weather forecast Met Office: where in UK can expect deep snowfall – when will ‘Beast from the East’ hit?
Forecasters are predicting a combination of an Arctic blast from the east as well as a ‘snow bomb’ from the west next week. A ‘snow bomb’ heading to the UK is predicted to bring some winter weather and heavy snowfall.
While polar air is expected to come over to the UK from the opposite direction in a ‘Beast from the East’ style arctic blast. The start of 2022 has not been filled with flurries of white snow but it has seen a string of storms that caused mass chaos across the country such as Eunice, Dudley and Franklin.
The extreme weather is not calming down as new weather maps from WXCharts show that there is a ’snow bomb’ moving across the Atlantic ocean which could bring around three inches of snow to the UK.
The snow is currently forecast to land around 10 March and is expected to hit Scotland, Wales and parts of northern and central England the hardest.
The weather front will bring freezing temperatures with some parts of Scotland and northern England seeing -4 degrees.
The long-range Met Office forecast for the UK is currently showing that it will be “cold across much of the UK” next week with some wintry showers.
There is Polar air coming in from Europe and milder currents from the Atlantic ocean which are set to clash next week. The collision of the cold and warm air is rare but as the weather system is approaching as the UK heads into spring, the damage shouldn’t bee too severe.
Where will the snow hit?
The heaviest snowfall will hit Scotland with 25 centimetres predicted.
Other areas where the snow is likely to land are Yorkshire, Greater Manchester, the Welsh Valleys, Lancashire and the North East of England.
The south of the country is more likely to see heavy rain – 10mm an hour could be seen in London and its surrounding areas.
Well maybe 🤔
