UK braces for ‘disruptive snow’ as weather warnings cover swaths of country
Weather forecasters have warned the UK to be prepared for “disruptive snow” and plummeting temperatures after an Arctic blast brought the coldest night of the season so far.
The Met Office said the early hours of Monday had been the chilliest night, with the lowest temperature, -7.8C, recorded at Tulloch Bridge in the Highlands.
By the morning, many households across Britain had to de-ice their car windscreens for the first time this winter after an unusually mild and dry start to the month.
The Met Office said up to 20cm (8in) of snow could accumulate in the worst-affected areas in the “first taste of winter” this season.
