Met Office Sounds Alarm on Rare Ice Storm Threat in Scotland with Severe Snowfall

A rare ice storm, accompanied by significant snowfall, is set to impact Scotland and northern England, warns the Met Office. The combination of freezing rain and snow is due to cold northern air colliding with moist Atlantic air, creating sub-zero conditions and the risk of black ice. Travellers and residents are urged to be cautious as snowfall could reach 1cm per hour and temperatures drop to -5°C.
