Brits are set to be battered by bad weather just days after a balmy, warm weekend – with snow and thunderstorms on the way.
According to Ventusky weather maps, the grim weather will be particularly bad on Monday April 15 from 7am. In particular, cities including Liverpool, Leeds, Manchester and Birmingham will face the rough weather conditions. However, by the end of the day, most of the severe weather will shift out towards Europe, with the weather improving on Tuesday but showers could still occur.
It comes as the country has enjoyed an “African plume” which came with unseasonably high temperatures on the back of weeks of wet and windy conditions. While temperatures are expected to drop by Sunday April 14, a second spell of warmer weather could be on the way, due to maps showing a high-pressure system moving in by the following weekend.
Looking to Saturday April 20, Met Office forecaster Alex Burkill said: “There is a fairly good chance that we could see high pressure dominating across the whole of the country and that means it is going to turn markedly drier than it has been.
“Not necessarily sunny, there could be quite a bit of cloud around but it does look like we are going to see a more prolonged dry spell than we have seen through many recent weeks and months, to be honest.”
