UK weather: Met Office issues severe weather warnings as ice, wind and snow sweep across Britain


As a cold snap expected to last two weeks settles over the whole of Britain, the Met Office has issued severe weather warnings for some areas impacted by ice, wind and snow on higher ground.

Large parts of Scotland and some of northern England were told to brace for conditions “likely to cause some local disruption to travel”, while yesterday some areas of higher ground saw up to 10cm (4 inches) of snow.

Alexi Boothman, a forecaster with MeteoGroup, said temperatures were markedly lower than the average for this time of year.
