In the coming days, the UK is poised to experience a significant cold snap, with temperatures plummeting to -5 \u00b0C<\/strong>. This brings the possibility of snow to various regions by November 4<\/strong>, including parts of England, the Pennines, and Scotland.<\/p>\n

UK Set for Icy Blast<\/h2>\n

The Highlands and Scottish Borders are most likely to see snowfall, with the Pennines in England possibly getting a dusting. According to WX Charts, using Met Desk data, early predictions indicate a transition to colder north-Westerly winds with a mix of sunshine and showers.<\/p>\n

Initially, rain might spread south-Eastwards, particularly in northern areas, accompanied by wind. High pressure<\/strong> is expected to build, leading to drier spells, though frost and fog<\/strong> may linger.<\/p>\n

From November 3, high pressure over northwest Europe may maintain slightly below-average temperatures, with periods of wind and rain<\/a> due to active Atlantic patterns. Temperatures might rise slightly by mid-November<\/strong> as westerly winds develop.<\/p>\n

Upcoming Snowfall<\/h3>\n

Weather maps indicate up to seven centimetres of snow<\/strong> could fall next week, affecting areas from Ullapool<\/strong> to Glencoe<\/strong>, including Perthshire<\/strong>, Inverness<\/strong>, and the Cairngorms<\/strong>, from October 29. These cold conditions<\/strong> might persist through to Halloween.<\/p>\n

Late October into early November suggests average temperatures<\/strong> with a brisk westerly flow bringing Atlantic systems. Some rain is expected, especially in the north, but longer dry spells are predicted. Windy conditions<\/strong> may continue in the northwest, with occasional rain.<\/p>\n
