Saturday morning is expected to be very cold after the mercury dropped below freezing overnight. Frosts are expected to last all day on Saturday in some areas.<\/p>\n
Forecasters told Express.co.uk that sub-zero temperatures over the weekend could drop as low as -7C and motorists have been warned about the possibility of travel chaos.<\/p>\n
Alyssa Smithmyer, a forecaster at Accuweather told Express.co.uk: “The best chances for any snow showers to occur can perhaps be for a brief period on Monday across the higher elevations of northwest Scotland as a front passes over the region, and also on Thursday.<\/p>\n
“On Monday, any winter precipitation will be isolated and very light in nature.<\/p>\n
“On Thursday, another front will pass over the UK and likely bring a period of light snow showers in the usual colder areas in northern Scotland, with a chance at a few flakes to fall across the higher parts of northern Wales and north-central England.”<\/p>\n

According to Ms Smithmyer, temperatures will drop to a bone chilling -6C for Nevis Range, Scotland on Monday night.<\/p>\n
Ben Wyvis and Cuillin Hill in northern Scotland will also face freezing daytime temperatures on Monday that reach a maximum of -2C.<\/p>\n
Northern Ireland could also face snowy conditions on Monday as winds could reach up to 40mph in coastal areas.<\/p>\n
There is also a small risk of road frost in some areas which could produce slippery conditions. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Wet roads could also become slick overnight as temperatures drop.<\/p>\n
Freezing and snowy conditions are likely to return from Wednesday evening due to a frontal passage.<\/p>\n
This is likely to produce more snow showers in higher areas of Wales, Scotland and possibly north as well as central England.<\/p>\n
Ms Smithmyer said: “Residents across these regions are not expected to be largely impacted due to the isolated and light nature of the precipitation. <\/p>\n
