Met Office predicts exact date snow will return – as yellow wind warning in Scotland sparks travel delays | The Sun

SNOW showers could hit Britain again next week – with some areas first facing strong winds today.

The Met Office issued a yellow weather warning for strong winds this morning – covering most of northern Scotland.


According to the forecaster, Brits could face problems during their journey into work.

In the yellow weather warning, it states: "Strong winds expected to bring some disruption to parts of Scotland.

"Some delays to road, rail, air and ferry transport are likely."

The warning – which has since expired – also warned "it's likely that some coastal routes… will be affected by spray and/or large waves."

And the wintry weather is set to continue over the next few weeks.

In the Met's long-range forecast, which stretches from February 5 to 14, it predicted the chance of some snow showers.

It warned: "The most likely scenario is for wetter, windier and milder weather to move in from the west, however there is a small chance of easterly winds developing bringing colder weather and some snow showers."

It comes after snow blanketed much of the south just two weeks before Christmas – including London.

Today, the Met Office has warned very strong winds could also affect the northeast at the start of the day but these will ease as the morning wears on.

It will be cloudier across Northern Ireland, southern Scotland and northern England and these areas will see some showers and then rain later on.

Southern parts of the UK will remain dry and bright.

Tomorrow, the Met Office predicts the weather will be wet in the far north, particularly northwest Scotland although it will become brighter to the East of higher ground.

Further South will see variable cloud and sunny intervals with a few showers in the South and West.

For Friday and into the weekend most parts will be settled and dry with bright and sunny spells, according to the Met Office.

By the weekend, the Met forecasts most parts of the UK will see a mostly fine day with "long sunny spells".

However, far western parts could see cloudier conditions developing later on.

In the early part of next week, conditions are expected to remain settled for most at first although the far northwest could see some wet weather.
