WXCharts' weather maps predict heavy snowfall, particularly in northern areas, with the Highlands and western Scotland facing the most significant accumulations.
New snow maps have revealed when different parts of the UK will be covered in a blanket of white. The mild spell we enjoyed over Christmas is set to end as we head into 2025, with early January seeing parts of the UK facing a covering of snow. WXCharts' weather maps show that the worst of the snowfall will hit north of the border, with several cm of snow expected.
The HRES model, which forecasts possible weather events 10 days ahead, predicts between 24cm to 80cm of snow falling in the Highlands and western Scotland on January 6. The same region will be affected the following day, although Northumbria is forecast to see 7cm and northern Wales between 1cm to 2cm. On January 9, the Highlands and western Scotland are forecast to see between 23cm and 73cm snow depth. Northumbria and Wales will see similar forecasts for snow depth as previously mentioned. A lighter dusting of snow is expected across larger parts of the country. Snow is predicted to fall across Northern Ireland, Wales and western England from midnight on Monday, January 6 before sweeping across the country. Weather maps show snow arriving in south east England and London from around 6am that day, with snowfall expected to reach the east coast from Suffolk to Northumberland from Tuesday, January 7, reports the Mirror. As Northumbria and Wales brace for consistency in chilly conditions, the north of Scotland anticipates a substantial upturn in snow, with forecasts predicting anything from 21cm to a generous 61cm on January 10. In a recent update, the Met Office hinted at possible snow showers across some regions as it outlined its weather predictions for January 1-10: 'The first of January will see any rain across the UK eventually clearing southeast, followed by cold air as a northerly wind develops,' the forecast reads. 'Showers of rain and sleet will turn increasingly to snow, especially across the north'
