Will we get any more snow across Hampshire this week after yesterday's flurry?
After a snowy dusting yesterday morning, the question is: Will there be more snow this week?
It has been a cold and frosty start to the first full week back at work for many after snow showers hit Hampshire yesterday morning (January) - with snow still clinging to the areas which had no sun on them to the north of Portsdown Hill.
With temperatures as low as -4 degrees, a lot of people will be wondering whether more snow is in store across the area.
The short answer is that it is unlikely we will see more than a few flakes today, with some already seen falling this morning.
The Met Office weather forecast indicates that while there will be lows of -3 degrees today (January 6), it will be cloudy and a “gentle breeze of 4mph”.
The forecast says: “Rain and sleet early Thursday, clearing to bright spells. Becoming increasingly windy, with rain and sleet late Thursday into Friday.”
Temperatures are anticipated to veer closer to average in the south between January 9 and January 18, with strong winds likely.
The Met Office has said the weather forecast towards the end of the month is set to be unpredictable with “spells of wet, windy and mild weather” “along with some colder, drier interludes with overnight frost and fog.”
The national meteorological service added: “There is a hint that this period may start off largely dry and cold though. Snow and ice remain possible, especially in central and northern parts of the UK, but the chance of these is generally lower than earlier in January.”
