UK weather: Met Office reveals snow to hit parts of Britain in just days as icy chill sets in

SNOW is expected to fall in parts of the UK over the next few weeks, according to the Met Office.

Brits have been advised to keep warm as chilly conditions set in - particularly at night.

From November 16, snow is expected in the hills of Scotland with a "low chance" of "widespread or disruptive" flurries in "more populated areas", the Met Office says.

Low pressure to the east of Britain will bring rain or showers for most at the end of this week.

More imminently, there will be blustery winds in the South East tonight with mist and thick fog for some.

Temperatures will fall to a freezing OC in parts overnight.

The fog and frost will clear by tomorrow morning and it is expected to be sunny for many.

There will however be light rain across western Scotland.

It'll gradually turn cloudier towards the end of the week with some rain in the North.

Conditions will turn more unsettled over the weekend and it will be "significantly colder" from Saturday, the Met Office says.

There will be heavy and frequent rain from next week for northern parts of the country.

There is also a chance of gales lashing Britain later this month, especially in the North and the East.
