UK Faces Heavy Snowfall Impacting Four Southern Counties
Snow maps from WX Charts, using Met Desk data based on advanced GFS modelling, indicate that flurries will affect southern England, particularly Devon, Dorset, Cornwall, and Somerset. These areas are expected to receive several centimetres of snow, with accumulations possibly reaching up to 3 cm per hour around November 19.
The weather data from November 6 forecasts a wintry shift across the south coast by mid-November, with blotches of purple, white, and grey on the maps highlighting these snowfall zones.
Mid-November Weather Outlook
Between November 17 and November 23, Netweather TV predicts a mostly dry and settled start to the week, with cold conditions especially in the south, including overnight frosts and fog patches.
"With pressure looking likely to remain quite high to the north-west of Britain, there is potential for one or two short lived northerly blasts, but again widespread snowfall looks unlikely."
Additional Warnings
- Snowfall is expected primarily in Dorset, Devon, Cornwall, and Somerset.
- Projections suggest up to 3 cm of snow could fall per hour during peak periods.
- Drivers have been warned about the upcoming scrapping of a car tax perk for the first time in the UK.
This forecast highlights a notable early winter weather event for southern England, though a widespread snow cover remains unlikely.
