As winter continues, the UK is seeing a mix of extreme cold and mild weather. Scotland is bracing for heavy snowfall and freezing rain , while London is set for warmer days with occasional showers.

Here’s what to expect in the coming week.  

Scotland: Snow and Freezing Rain Ahead

Scotland is experiencing severe winter conditions , with heavy snowfall and freezing rain causing travel disruptions . The Met Office has issued warnings for areas like Angus, Stirling, and Perth, where snow accumulation could reach 13 cm per hour . Temperatures will drop to -2°C, making roads slippery. Some areas may see rain washing away snow by midweek, but icy conditions could persist until Wednesday.  

London: Warmer Days with Cloud Cover

Unlike Scotland, London is warming up . After a cold and rainy weekend, temperatures will rise to 13-14°C by midweek. The shift is due to milder Atlantic air replacing the cold Scandinavian winds. Expect cloudy skies with possible showers, particularly in western areas.
