Where will snow fall in the UK over the next 14 days?
The snow forecast 14 days outlook suggests the highest chance of accumulations across the Scottish Highlands, the Pennines, and parts of the Lake District. A snow forecast uk map from the Met Office shows a 40–60% probability of at least 2 cm on hills above 300 metres in these regions between Wednesday and Friday. Lower ground in central and southern England may see sleet or wet snow, but significant settling is unlikely.
For those tracking conditions abroad, a separate snow forecast alps 14 days indicates heavy snowfall above 1,500 metres from Thursday, benefiting ski resorts. The 14-day snow forecast europe points to a cold easterly flow affecting the Alps and the Balkans, while the UK remains on the northern edge of the pattern.
