UK weather: Temperatures could plunge again, bringing chance of snow towards end of January
The Met Office forecasts snow across much of the UK late January as temperatures may fall due to competing weather systems, following disruptions from Storm Goretti earlier this month.
- The Met Office warned of an increased chance of snow across parts of the UK late in the January 21–30 forecast period, saying `Later in the period, there is an increased chance that conditions will turn colder`.
- Forecasters say a 'battle' between Atlantic weather systems and eastern high pressure could prompt colder conditions after Storm Goretti, which brought gusts of almost 100mph and rare red warnings earlier this month.
- Regional forecasts place snow on January 24 in Southern Wales, with Dorset likeliest on January 26 and Swindon and Oxford around January 28; snow then retreats north to Northumberland on January 29.
- Low cloud and fog could cause travel disruption over the next 24 hours, the Met Office warned, with no weather warnings this week and temperatures predicted between 4 and 11 degrees.
- Forecasters note uncertainty but expect milder Atlantic air initially, then from Wednesday the Met Office is watching heavy rain risks in Wales and the West Country, while WX Charts show snow could appear widely across the UK in the coming weeks.
