Weather maps warn Brits over sub-zero freeze set to grip UK in just hours
Plummeting temperatures could see the UK go subzero in parts of the country and not for the first time this year, as London, Edinburgh and Glasgow are all set for a major drop
A weather map has warned Brits are in for subzero temperatures as a freeze is set to grip the UK.
Plummeting temperatures and freezing conditions are expected across the country as wintry weather sets in. Scotland and London will see massive drops in the average temperatures, with Glasgow set to see -1C as early as this evening.
Other parts of the country are being told to prepare for equally cold temperatures, with a BBC Weather map saying southern parts of the UK could be affected, BirminghamLive reported.
Senior meteorologist for British Weather Services, Jim Dale, has since warned of fog and cooler conditions in parts of the country. A Met Office spokesperson also warned of "blustery winds" and "heavy downpours" to come.
He said: "It’s a long time coming - mainly but not exclusively for inland areas of northern UK but not really penetrating. Fog will temper the freeze in many areas."
Fellow comments from Met Office meteorologist Ellie Galisyer echoed Mr Dale's worries.
She said: "Those shower conditions that we've seen overnight will continue through much of today, pushing in from the west so those heavier showers always confined to the western coast and southern coasts as well. In the south people could see some heavy downpours "and perhaps hear the odd rumble of thunder through this afternoon.
"Parts of Scotland, northern England and southeast England always staying the driest with plenty of sunny spells here through this afternoon, but perhaps not feeling too warm in that sunshine with blustery winds."
Though a chilly weekend is in store for Brits up and down the country, the weather is set to mildly improve on November 13, with the start of the week starting off with higher temperatures.
London temperatures are predicted to drop to a low of 9C and hit the highs of 15C. A stark contrast to Scotland, where experts predict a high of 9C and a low of 6C in Edinburgh.
A three to five day forecast from the Met Office, covering Sunday, November 12 until Tuesday, November 14 read: "A chilly start to Sunday with fog for some. This clearing with outbreaks of rain pushing eastwards later. Remaining unsettled on Monday and Tuesday with rain followed by blustery showers." Widespread frost could make an appearance during the start of December as winter sets in."
