A recently released weather map has indicated that London may experience a significant snowfall in the upcoming week, just days after the city witnessed its first snowfall of the year on Monday, January 8. This map, provided by WXCharts, offers a dynamic visualization of weather predictions, illustrating the expected weather conditions over a day or several hours.

According to the WXCharts map, Many Parts of the South East and Kent could face a wave of snow on Tuesday, January 16, as a substantial wall of snow progresses northeastward. The snowfall is anticipated to originate from the English Channel, traverse Kent, and then move through the capital.

As indicated on the map, the South East is likely to encounter the most intense snowfall at approximately noon on January 16. However, given that this forecast is still a week away, precise timing may undergo slight adjustments. The extent of snowfall is depicted by a purple area on the map, with darker shades indicating a higher volume of snow. Subsequently, a band of rain, denoted in blue on the map, is expected to follow the snowfall.

The temperatures on January 16 are predicted to remain quite low, hovering around 2°C. In contrast, BBC Weather offers a differing perspective, forecasting “sunny intervals and a gentle breeze” with highs of 6°C and lows of 1°C for London on that day. Conversely, The Met Office’s long-range forecast has issued a cautionary note regarding a “very small risk of a period of snow across some southern areas for a time.”
