Cold spell still likely
Generally quiet conditions are expected to persist across much of the UK
during the first half of this week as high pressure remains anchored to the
west of the UK. The first signs of change begin to shape up during the
second half of the week as colder air begins to sink southwards. By the
weekend it should be cold enough for some snow showers over high ground in
Scotland and possibly northern areas, with frost developing quite widely at
night where skies clear.
The real fun looks set to begin next week as we head towards what we still
think will be a colder spell of weather during the middle of the month. A
significant northerly plunge is expected, and this looks like lasting long
enough to flood some cold air down across most of the UK, giving an
increasing risk of snow showers even on lower ground in the north. If this
spell lasts long enough, and the upper level air is cold enough, and the
winds back into a north easterly direction, then some sleet or snow showers
may begin to fall over lowers ground in eastern parts of England too.

My Comment:
Note my question mark in the subject column. I
am relying more on Darren's forecasts. It still seems very much in the
balance.
