PARTS of Britain could be blasted with snow this week amid a -8C deep freeze – here’s where and when you might expect to see the white stuff.
Temperatures will plummet tonight as rain, sleet and up to eight inches snow make this weekend’s warmer spell a distant memory.
Mountain ranges across the UK are expected to be worst hit, with snowfall set to accumulate tomorrow morning in the Highlands amid -6C temperatures.
A Met Office yellow icy weather warning in place for Scotland and parts of northern England is likely to be extended amid concern over potential “hazardous” conditions.
Tuesday could also be treacherous as Brits wake up to a frosty start across the country, after a freezing night across the UK.
Most of the country will become slightly warmer tomorrow, though Scotland will remain icy with temperatures plummeting further to -8C.

And by Wednesday morning, a cold air front could bring snow right across different parts of the UK, including the Peak District, the Pennines, the Cumbrian Fells and the southern Uplands.
John Hammond, chief meteorologist for Weathertrending, told The Sun Online: “For the rest of Monday and Tuesday, the hills and mountains of western Scotland and Northern Ireland are likely to see some ‘wintry’ showers.
“Some sleet is possible down to low levels, but it’s the higher elevations that will see most of any snowfall – mostly above where people live.
“However the higher level routes in the Highlands may see some accumulating snowfall, with ice being a more widespread hazard, especially on Tuesday morning.”
He added: “In fact most of the UK will have a crunchy start to Tuesday morning, with a widespread frost across the UK.
“On Tuesday, rain will be arriving across the southwest of the UK. As it hits the cold air further north, a period of snow is likely for the hills of mid and north Wales; and by Wednesday morning the risk extends to the Peak District, the Pennines, the Cumbrian Fells and the southern Uplands.
“2-5cm is possible to affect the highest communities in these areas, but some of the mountain passes could briefly see as much as 10-15cm.”

Brian Gaze, director and meteorologist for The Weather Outlook, also predicted snow in some parts of the UK.
He told The Sun Online: “Tomorrow night and through Wednesday heavy rain spreads northeastwards and it probably turns to snow for a time over Snowdonia and over the hills in northern England.
“Higher parts of the Pennines could see several cms of snow.”

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
