UK Weather: Temperatures set to tumble as Arctic blast strikes country
SKY News ^ | December 3, 2022

Posted on 12/03/2022 8:15:36 AM PST by Oldeconomybuyer

An Arctic blast threatens to send temperatures tumbling even further across the UK in the coming week.

Following the chill brought by a northeasterly breeze in recent days, forecasters expect it to turn even colder from Wednesday, hovering closer to freezing during the day and dipping below overnight.

It raises the prospect of snow in the North, particularly over the Scottish mountains, with temperatures remaining below average.

"As well as making it feel much colder, Arctic air is lovely and clean and brings sparkling winter sunshine with great visibility.

"However, it also means frosty nights and an increasing risk of sleet and snow in any showers.

"The Met Office has already issued a yellow snow warning for parts of northern Scotland and the Northern Isles on Wednesday, as snow showers could cause travel disruption.

"Accumulations of 2 to 5cm (0.7 to 2in) are possible at lower levels, with 5 to 10cm (2 to 4in) of snow above 200m.

"The strong northerly winds will bring an additional risk of drifting and blizzard conditions."

It’s 20 degrees in Keiv and snowing. Vitali Klitschko, the mayor, saved lives when he urged citizens to evacuate.

It is very wrong for people to return the favor of such information with such snide responses.

Snow coverage in the Northern Hemisphere is the highest ever recorded for this date, meaning the highest in 56 years (since weather satellites came into widespread use). In any case, there’s a lot of snow on the ground with winter officially 2.5 weeks away. Bundle up.

"It is very wrong for people to return the favor of such information with such snide responses."?p> Show and cold temperatures sound like winter to me. Are you denying that seasons exist or are you an mind-dead acolyte of the WEF religion? Are you able to sense that I am being snide?
