Brits braced for 'near-freezing' Platinum Jubilee weekend as temperatures set to plummet
Platinum Jubilee bank holiday may have to think again after new weather forecasts suggest temperatures are set to plummet for the big weekend.Excitement had built over recent days over suggestions of a 'heatwave' — but the mercury could now be closer to freezing than the 30C that had been promised.It comes as a massive low-pressure formation continues to keep the British Isles cold for the official meteorological start of summer while parts of continental Europe enjoy record high temperatures.Weathertrending meteorologist John Hammond told the Daily Express: “What had been flagged up as a promising run-in to the Jubilee celebrations now looks cool and unsettled.“A subtle shift to the west of high pressure in the Atlantic will allow a chilly area of low pressure to tumble in from the northeast, bringing some sharp showers, limited brightness and suppressed temperatures.”Data from the Met Office shows lows of 9C and 8C possible in parts of the UK on Thursday (2 June) and Friday (3 June), with the north of Scotland potentially seeing temperatures drop to a winter-like 7C.Met Office Deputy Chief Meteorologist Helen Caughey said that the overall picture for the Jubilee remains difficult to call, with it still possible that that the European heatwave arrives just in time.For the latest breaking news and stories from across the globe from the Daily Star, sign up for our newsletter by clicking here.In a daily update she wrote: “The main source of uncertainty for the weekend itself is to do with how far a plume of warm air, currently across the continent, encroaches over southern areas of the UK from late on Friday.

Arctic air to batter Britain on May Day bank holiday with temperatures close to freezing
Britain over the course of the May Day bank holiday, with temperatures reaching close to freezing.The thermometer is due to sink to 4C in London, with areas across northern England, Scotland and Northern Ireland facing weather as cold as freezing.That is a stark contrast compared to the last bank holiday weekend over Easter, when temperatures peaked at 19C.Although conditions are due to remain fairly dry across the UK over the bank holiday, arctic winds dragged in from the North Sea will bring in the stark temperature drop, with colder mornings and late-season frost.Former Met Office meteorologist John Hammond said: "The mercury will go into reverse, with a cooler trend to end April.“Fresh waves of Arctic air mean a good chance, even across southern Britain, of temperatures falling close to or below freezing."Met Office meteorologist Luke Miall said: “High pressure starts to drift towards the north of the UK this weekend allowing lower pressure to develop in the south of the UK.“This means we start to see an easterly feed to our winds and with this, it will turn cooler over the next few days.”To stay up to date with all the latest news, make sure you sign up to one of our newsletters here.He added: “We will continue to see easterly winds dragging in the winds from the North Sea and this will peg back temperatures through the rest of this month.“It will start to feel that little bit colder particularly if you are on the eastern side of the UK where we will see those cooler winds coming in from the North Sea.”The Met Office’s Greg Dewhurst said: “Looking at the pressure pattern for Saturday, low pressure sat to the south of the UK high pressure sat to the north will bring a brisk easterly flow across the whole of the
