Met Office warns SNOW will sweep across England ‘in February’ with temperatures set to PLUMMET to the North Pole -7C

‘Winter is not over yet’

Jim Dale, senior meteorologist at the British Weather Service said: “I think once we rock things up in February it’s likely we get a winter thrust from time to time, from the side. north and beyond the northeast.

“Winter is not over yet. February is a winter month, it is usually the coldest month of the year.

“That doesn’t mean it can’t attack. It can.

“But at the same time, it looks more like it’s from the Atlantic, so it’s not the worst direction for winter in general.

“But I do hope that the Highlands and Grampians will return to snow at some point, as we continue.

“Whether it goes any lower or not, time will only tell – but I’m hoping for some of that.”
