Winter is coming… Met Office warns of cold weather sweeping the country this weekend with possibility of snow

THE Met Office has warned that it will be a chilly weekend across the country as temperatures plummet.

Some places could fall as low as -4°C thanks to a blast of Arctic air moving in from Friday, replacing the milder conditions we’ve experienced recently.

It’s been six months since the mercury dipped as low, with a temperature of -4.6°C recorded in Aboyne, Aberdeenshire, on May 1.

There’s set to be snow on high ground in parts of Scotland, with strong winds and heavy showers in most parts. Some of these showers could contain hail.

It looks like Saturday will be the coldest day, with temperatures recovering slightly for Sunday and showers becoming more confined to eastern areas.

Drivers are being urged to take care as the conditions take a turn for the worse.

Stein Connelly from Transport Scotland said: “Snow, sleet and ice look set to move into parts of Scotland at the end of this week, particularly over higher routes.

“Our operating companies have already started their winter services and will closely monitor the trunk road network, providing appropriate treatments where necessary.

“As always, we encourage motorists to plan their journeys ahead of time, follow police travel advice and drive to the conditions.”
