I mentioned that wind coming from scandinavia, its not stopping across the uk, it goes all the way down to the bay of biscay and it turns around and moves all the way to morocco so theyre feeling some cold there as well, not looking great across that part of europe. Back to the wind, look what happens when it drags in those showers during the course of sunday night into monday, snow showers get into kent, sussex, essex, norfolk, suffolk, possibly the london area which means first thing monday morning there could be a little bit of snow lying around across the south east all the way up to lincolnshire just in time for the rush hour. This is what it looks like on tuesday, a weather front this time moving across the north and west and on this day we could have some snow in North Western parts of the country down to wales possibly the midlands, still cold, two, three degrees at best for most of us.
