A’snowbob,’ according to some reports, is coming from Storm Carrie on December 27, the third and final winter storm which battered the country.
In the northern part of the country, snowfalls of up to one centimetre could be observed in just an hour after Christmas.
The country is expected to see low clouds and fog throughout, although some sunshine may be possible in Scotland and Wales.

“Towards the middle, there’s an increasing possibility of windier and more unstable weather in the UK. Rain and possibly snow are possible for certain places.
“Temperatures will be generally near or below average, possibly quite cold in the South, feeling chilly wherever any fog persists and mild locally in the North and Northwest.”
