Baby, it’s cold outside! Are we ready for the weather to get colder? Absolutely not! Well, you might be, but I am certainly not!
The battle between cold Arctic air and milder Atlantic air is going to result in disruptive snow across the country this week. The snow was due to start falling today, and technically it has started falling in areas across Britain already – including in the countryside. Although I was expecting to wake up to a blanket of white fluffy snow this morning, it wasn’t quite the case. We had mere drizzles of snowflakes on the muddy grassy and no ice on the cars whatsoever! Which was a huge relief before the school run.
Albeit, these snow warnings are not over just yet and the Met Office has issued snow to fall for the week across the country. The temperature has definitely dropped outside and it’s not only snow we need to worry about, the weather is also bringing in so harsh cold winds.
It’s strange how most of us assume that once January and February are over with that Spring is underway, and this automatically means sunny weather. Yet, in Britain, we are more likely to have snow during this time.
