dailyrecord.co.uk:

New weather maps are predicting widespread snow across northern Scotland this week. The UK could be facing a freezing cold blast from an Arctic storm that could see temperatures plummet to as low as -2C.

According to the latest weather maps from WXCharts and Netweather, many parts of Britain may experience heavy snowfall and icy conditions if the storm arrives.

The map suggests that by Thursday, December 19, snow showers could begin to spread southwards, along with bitingly cold air that will make the temperature feel even lower.

Many areas of Scotland, in particular the Highlands and Grampians, are expected to see significant snow depths by midweek, possibly reaching up to 5cm to 10cm in the worst-hit areas.Overnight, temperatures are anticipated to dip well below freezing, the coldest expected in Inverclyde the Highlands and Perthshire, according to WXCharts.
