The UK could be in for its first dusting of snow as early as next week, according to the Met Office. The weather experts are predicting “snow showers” in the northern and eastern regions due to the “introduction of some colder air to many areas” at the start of November. High pressure is set to dominate, but there’s uncertainty about its position and orientation further into November, which will determine whether we stay in a relatively cold air mass or if somewhat milder conditions return. With high pressure in play, areas across the UK will feel the chill, with overnight frost and fog likely.
So, it’s time to dig out that winter coat as temperatures are expected to be below average overall. By mid-November, there are hints that the high pressure may ease off, allowing more unsettled conditions to take hold.

UK snow forecast this week
Don’t get too excited for a snow fight just yet, as it’s going to be limited to areas like Inverness in the north and east of Scotland. That’s if there’s any snow at all, which may be hard to imagine after temperatures up to the high teens in parts of the UK this week. From October 30 to November 8, the Met Office predicts: ‘The period is likely to be characterised by often quiet and settled weather, as an area of high pressure becomes the dominant feature of the weather.‘Some mist and fog is probable in the south at first, alongside rather cloudy conditions, whilst in the extreme north spells of stronger winds and rain could brush past giving a slightly more unsettled picture.
‘Into the start of November, there is a chance the weather could (briefly) turn much colder/brighter, with a chance of snow showers in northern and eastern areas, but it’s equally possible these could stay clear of the UK, or the milder conditions could remain in place.
‘Either way going forward it’s likely to stay mainly settled, with an increasing chance of more unsettled weather developing later in this period.’
News reports this week suggested that some Scottish towns had been warned to brace for a 150-mile-long snow blast which could engulf them this weekend.
But the Met Office warned ‘headlines don’t always reflect the reality’.
Clarifying the snow forecast, it said: ‘Any snow will likely be confined to high ground in the north, as is normal for the time of year.’
