Map reveals where snow could fall in UK after temperatures drop to -5°C
Parts of the UK could be hit by snow tomorrow as bitter temperatures continue.
The Met Office has warned that the snow could impact areas on higher ground in Scotland, while rain showers will push through Northern Ireland.
People in these areas were also braced for icy conditions this morning after ice warnings were issued for the northern part of Northern Ireland and the north of Scotland.
But the Met Office has warned that fresh snow could fall in Scotland and potentially northern parts of England particularly over higher ground.
While today is nice and sunny for large parts of the UK, temperatures dipped to -5°C in parts of rural Scotland last night.
For this evening, the Met Office said: ‘Fine at first with clear periods. However, thickening cloud and rain moving south and east across the UK overnight, giving some hill snow. Patchy frost ahead, following the rain.’
For Friday it added: ‘Rather cloudy across central, southern and eastern areas with rain and hill snow slowly dying out. Some hill fog. Mostly fine further north and west with bright or sunny spells.’
While many areas across the UK woke up to sunshine, a heavy band of rain pushed in from the southwest of the UK and hit parts of the Kent.
Storm Ivo, which was named in Portugal, was the third named storm of 2025 to batter the south of the UK, bringing winds of 60mph.
The strongest gusts were recorded in southern parts of England and the Channel Islands where winds reached 30 to 40mph.
There are currently 14 flood warnings in place, meaning flooding is expected, mainly across southern parts of England.
Met Office Meteorologist Clare Nasir added: ‘Now last night we saw the rain across central and southeastern areas of England.
‘It’s clear in Kent through the first few hours and then the cloud will break.
‘For most, it’s a dry day, a pleasant day as the temperatures slowly lift and the frost lifts from the ground.’
The news is not welcome for those who despise the winter weather and comes after the UK was hit by Storm Eowyn.
Two people died and around 130,000 people were left without power because of the storm’s ferocity.
Then came Storm Herminia which arrived from Spain earlier this week and brought with it 80mph gusts.
