ADVANCE WARNING OF SEVERE WEATHER
Here is an ADVANCED WARNING of Heavy Snow affecting Scotland, Northern Ireland, North West England, North East England, The Midlands and Wales.
Issued by the Met Office at 09:34 on Sunday, 16 January 2005.
The Met Office is forecasting a very strong, cold westerly or northwesterly flow to become established across the UK during Monday. Frequent snow showers are expected across much of northern Britain, as well as some central parts. Western and northern Scotland are expected to be worst affected, 5 to 10cm of snow likely in places, with over 15cm accumulating on high ground. Combined with severe gales and gusts to over 70mph at times, blizzard conditions and drifting will occur, particularly on high ground where untreated roads may become impassable. During Tuesday, somewhat less cold air will probably move across the UK, the snow tending to become confined to high ground, where some further significant falls with drifting may occur.
For enquiries regarding this warning - please contact your regional Met Office.
