: “As the low develops over the Atlantic and interacts with the jet stream it will rapidly strengthen, a phenomenon called ‘explosive cyclogenesis’, where the central pressure of a low at latitudes in which the UK lies drops 24 millibars or more in 24 hours. This is forecast to happen on Thursday while

accumulations and further warnings are likely to be issued as the locations affected become clearer. Upcoming forecast “Overnight temperatures will be notably low through the week, especially in areas with lying snow. We can expect to see -10°C  as far south as East Anglia later in the week.
