Met Office issues verdict on snow maps showing four inches hitting one day next week
Weather maps show a 10cm per hour snow bomb to blast the UK on one day next week. WX Charts, which uses Met Desk data, shows 10cm per hour of snow falling next Thursday (February 22) as the downturn in weather conditions and temperatures occurs.
气象地图显示,下周的某一天,一场每小时10厘米的大雪将袭击英国。根据英国气象局的数据,下周四(2月22日),随着天气条件和气温的下降,每小时的降雪量为10厘米。
Expert James Madden said: "Confirmation is now also starting to come in from elsewhere, and the main third-party computer models are also coming on board with a major spell of cold weather and widespread snow across large parts of the country for in and around the middle part of next week and onwards.
专家詹姆斯·马登说:“现在也开始从其他地方得到确认,主要的第三方计算机模型也开始投入使用,因为下周中期及以后,全国大部分地区将迎来一场大范围的寒冷天气和降雪。”
"Initially, it looks like these colder conditions will come from some cold northerly/northwesterly winds and a further evolution and the influence of something more substantial from the east is also still very plausible in this period and heading into March."
最初,看起来这些更冷的条件将来自一些寒冷的北风或西北风,而进一步的演变和来自东方的更大的影响在这段时间和进入3月份仍然是非常有可能的。
Madden, from Exacta Weather, said: "The recent SSW will also intensify the magnitude and frequency of these cold northerly and easterlies in comparison to the wintry blasts we have experienced throughout this winter to date. Historically speaking and when we look at longer term trends from the past, we can also see that these cold winds from the north and east can be more common at times throughout the first several weeks of the meteorological springy , and particularly more so when atmospheric and blocking patterns are stacked in our favour like at present."

Madden added: "The upcoming and nearest snow events are also likely to be much more venomous than anything we have seen so far this winter with the winds in either scenario from the north and/or east, and they are also likely to extend to areas much farther south this time around due to how they have come about in terms of the recent and quite powerful SSW weather event."

In its own forecast, the Met Office says "northern parts of the UK may see the best of any remaining dry and frosty conditions, with the south most likely to see the majority of the rainfall" and the BBC says: "Wet periods. Turning chillier later in the week."
