Snow Forecast As UK Cold Snap Continues

The freezing weather conditions sweeping across Britain are predicted to bring snow to some parts this weekend.
Daytime temperatures have fallen four or five degrees below the average for February at 1-4C.
And the mercury is expected to drop considerably today with some areas remaining below freezing in the daytime and temperatures as low as -10C possible tonight.
The chill means rain that is forecast for Saturday and Sunday is now expected to fall as snow.
Sky News weather presenter Isobel Lang said: "After a widespread frost it will be another very cold but bright winter's day with plenty of sunshine. 
"There will be some snow showers, mainly across Lincolnshire, Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire early in the day, and later along other eastern coastal counties of England particularly of East Anglia and the southeast.
"Easterly winds will continue to make it feel bitterly cold across southern Britain although winds will be lighter elsewhere."
There will be no respite as the day goes on, she said. "Tonight expect temperatures to fall even lower than last night across the south as the winds ease - dry air, clear skies and light winds - the perfect set up for a hard frost. 
"Temperatures across parts of Wales, the Midlands and the West Country could fall to -10 Celsius or below.
"On Friday there will be snow flurries across the southeast and East Anglia - perhaps Kent seeing a few centimetres of snow. 
"Elsewhere it will be a freezing cold day although with less wind thankfully. The main change will be across Ireland where moister air will spread in from the Atlantic with a mix of rain and hill snow.
"During Friday night there may be some more snow across East Anglia and the southeast. There will also be changes from the west too as that moister air from Ireland comes in across Britain to bring an increased threat of snow.
"During the latter part of Saturday and into the early hours of Sunday there is a risk of heavy snow across central and eastern England - 5 to 10cm, up to 4 inches, is forecast. 
"Meanwhile western parts will be more likely to see rain, and temperatures in the west will lift a little. It will remain cold in the east.
Parts of eastern Europe have seen their coldest winter for 30 years with at least 30 people dying in the Ukraine alone.
In Bosnia villagers have been left stranded by the heavy snow and helicopters have been airlifting supplies and evacuating dozens of people.
In Romania temperatures have dropped as low as -32.5 C in some regions, causing power failures, traffic chaos and the closure of schools and nurseries.
The weather is predicted to spread to North Africa in the coming days.
In the UK the biting weather is expected to ease off next week, becoming milder on Monday.
