THE UK's unpredictable weather is set to continue with forecasters predicting another icy blast that will send temperatures plummeting later this week.

Some areas might be starting to warm up slightly and milder weather can be found,  but forecasters now suggest that patches of snow could hit over the next few weeks. 

Weather forecaster, WX Charts shows low levels of snow falling across West Yorkshire.

WX Charts suggests that snow could hit between Monday, March 6 and Monday, March 6.

Bradford Telegraph and Argus:

Snow: the WX Chart for Monday, March 6. The purple colour is snow.

Although WX has predicted snow long term, the Met Office is currently not predicting any chances of snow for the new week. 

As the Met Office predicts that the weather will be dry with warmer weather and brighter spells coming throughout the next week.

This week temperatures will start to fall from Wednesday but the worst of the cold snap won't arrive until Friday and into the weekend when snow showers could be on the cards.

Although daytime temperatures are expected to remain above freezing, strong winds will make it feel colder.

But nighttime temperatures will be much colder with lows of minus 7 celsius predicted for some parts of England.

Brian Gaze, a forecaster at The Weather Outlook, warned: “Computer models show very cold air being pulled in from Wednesday, moving down from the north-west. It means the risk of snow returns, particularly for the North."

But not everyone is convinced.

The BBC forecast for Bradford predicts colder temperatures by the end of the week.
From a high of 14C today, the mercury will have fallen to just 1 degree above freezing by the weekend. 

And the Met Office predicts: "[This weekend] settled conditions are likely to continue, however some light rain and showers are still possible at times, with nocturnal fog or mist developing in places. 

"Some stronger winds could develop in the east and south, making it feel colder here, though temperatures overall, will be generally near or slightly below average, although locally cold overnight."

Colder than average conditions are predicted for March, although confidence remains low.
