Forecasters are at odds over snow predictions for Wales this weekend, with warnings in place for snow and ice from Saturday to Sunday night.
Wales: So, it looks like there’s a bit of a weather showdown happening this weekend. The Met Office has put out a two-day warning for snow and ice starting Saturday afternoon. They think the snow will start falling around 2:30 PM, with a mix of rain and hail expected by 4 PM.
By 8 PM, they’re predicting a good amount of snow across much of Wales, and by midnight, it should be blanketed in white. But here’s the kicker: the BBC has a different take. They think more rain will fall than snow, especially on Sunday.
The Met Office is saying that Saturday will start off mostly dry, but snow could turn to rain by Sunday. Meanwhile, the BBC is painting a much wetter picture, with less snow overall. It’s a bit of a guessing game, really.
They say forecasting snow is tricky because it all depends on the temperature and where the air is coming from. Sometimes, a tiny change in temperature can mean the difference between snow and rain. So, it’s no wonder they can’t agree!
Keep an eye on those weather maps, folks. It’s going to be an interesting weekend in Wales!
