[size=18]'Snowstorms on way' for chilly UK [/size]

Severe wintry weather is being forecast for the UK, with as much as 20cm of snow causing disruption in some parts by the weekend, the Met Office says.

Snow is most likely in Scotland and eastern England but south-east England, north Wales, the Midlands and Northern Ireland may also be hit from Thursday.

Snow, sleet and hail will be coupled with gale force icy winds and wind chill temperatures as low as -10C.

Snow in November is "unusual, but not unheard of", the Met Office says.

The forecast follows days of freezing conditions across the UK and warnings of hazardous driving conditions due to dense fog.

Daytime temperatures are expected to be around 2C to 4C, dropping below freezing at night.

The Met Office is predicting a colder and drier than average winter for the UK with more frequent cold snaps.

The last time winter temperatures dropped below the UK average was 10 years ago in 1995/6.

If it gets especially cold, then we'll have power cuts.

Its an islamic forum, and I am sure too many people will take offence with my explanation.

suffice it to say hot is not related to the physical temperature.
