The UK Met Office has issued multiple weather warnings for heavy snow, rain, and wind across the country, particularly in Scotland, for the New Year period. The warnings cover potential travel disruption, power outages, and blizzard conditions.
The Met Office has issued further weather warnings across the UK, with a band of snow, heavy rain and 75mph winds all forecast for the New Year . A snow warning is in effect from midnight on Monday until 11:59pm on Tuesday across Scotland, with up to 140mm of rain and 20cm of snow possible in Glasgow, Aberdeen and Dundee. Due to the heavy rain, the forecaster said there will be “significant disruption” in the build-up to Hogmanay.
Chief Forecaster at the Met Office, Neil Armstrong said: “From Sunday we will start to see some heavy rain affecting northwestern parts of Scotland. After a brief respite… this may be accompanied by some heavy snowfall in the mountains and perhaps to lower elevations.” A separate yellow warning for wind will be put in place in the northwest of England on Monday from 11am to 6pm. The warning covers areas including Durham, Northumberland, Cumbria and North Yorkshire. Gusts of up to 60mph could cause power cuts and further travel disruption, the Met Office has warned. A Met Office spokesperson added that: “Strong winds may exacerbate impacts, particularly across the areas of Scotland affected by snow. Blizzard conditions are possible, especially over high ground and across much of Sutherland and Caithness. Powerline icing is possible where blizzard conditions occur.” Conditions toward New Year’s Eve are expected to remain unsettled, with two additional yellow weather warnings into 1 January 2025. In Northern Ireland, a warning for winds of up-to 70mph is in place from 6am until 7pm on 31 December, before a warning for “heavy and persistent snow” comes into place the next morning until later that evening.
