The storm is expected to move eastward and southward, affecting Newcastle, Yorkshire, the Midlands, and eventually reaching the capital. Experts warn of potential travel chaos and widespread disruptions due to the heavy snow and icy conditions.
A chilling 'snow bomb' is set to blast the UK, blanketing England in a whiteout "from top to bottom".
Initial impact points look set to be Merseyside and Greater Manchester, with the snowy conditions forecasted to then barrel eastwards and southwards encompassing Newcastle, Yorkshire, and the Midlands including Birmingham. Madden further warned that the chilling breezes won't only affect the south and east but are predicted to usher in snow showers to other parts of the nation: "The colder airflow across our shores will also allow for the formation of snow showers in other parts of the country away from the southern and eastern quadrants during this same period, particularly, in some large parts of northeast England and in some parts to the east of Scotland.
