When will West Midlands cold weather snap end? Full forecast for Birmingham and beyond
Snow has fallen in some parts of the UK - here’s how it looks in Birmingham and the West Midlands going forward.
Ice weather warnings have been in place for the West Midlands this week.
The scarves and hats are out in force, but it seems most of our region has missed the snowfall seen in northern parts of the country.
Of course there’s been some snowfall on the hills and peaks of the region, and for most of us we’ve woken up to noticeably colder weather today.
Here’s the latest Met Office forecast for the next week:
Cold, with plenty of bright or sunny spells.
Today (20 Nov)
A chilly start with widespread frost, and ice likely on untreated surfaces. A widely clear and dry day, with little cloud cover allowing plenty of sunny intervals. Feeling cold as brisk northerly winds continue. Maximum temperature 4 °C.
Tonight
Remaining largely clear and dry, with little cloud cover in the west, however, patchy cloud pushes into eastern parts overnight. Winds easing overnight. Frost will reform under clear skies. Minimum temperature -2 °C.
Friday
Another chilly start for many. Staying dry with clear skies and prolonged sunny spells. A return to slightly milder conditions with light winds, feeling pleasant in any sunshine. Maximum temperature 5 °C.
Outlook for Saturday to Monday:
Turning increasingly cloud and changeable from Saturday, as bands of rain and showers push eastwards across the region. Breezy at times, but feeling milder as temperatures return to near average.
