There’s plenty of cold dense air in place over the UK ahead of an approaching Atlantic front. The stage is set for the first significant hill snow event of the 2016-17 winter.

Expect rain to change over to snow, especially above 800-1,000ft through today with significant accumulation (3-6 inches) expected. High road routes such as the A9, A96, M8, M74, M6 and A66 are all expected to see snowfall. Low elevations across the north including Glasgow-Edinburgh corridor could see slight accumulation in places for a time but it’s tricky pinpointing exactly the places that will see snow cover.

Away from the coast, air temps should hold 2-4C widely and moisture is expected to move into far western areas by midday/early afternoon spreading slowly east through this afternoon and evening. After dark, low levels of Scotland, Northern Central England have the best chance at snow and a covering.

We’re closely watching even lower levels of the Midlands for accumulating snow overnight tonight.
