Over the next seven days, several places in the UK are set to see snow as chilly conditions return. Maps from forecaster WXCHARTS show snow will begin in Scotland and the north of England, before spreading southwards towards the Midlands. The cold weather comes after conditions have looked to be warming up for spring, but now Brits could see wintry weather once more.
On Tuesday, March 24, at 6pm, the maps show patches of snow in Scotland, with a small patch of snow in North Yorkshire. In the south of England and most of the Midlands, these parts of the country will be spared, seeing rain instead of snow. On Wednesday, March 25, at 6am, the deepest snow will be in the Scottish Highlands, with up to 5cm of snowfall.
