Striking weather maps show wintry conditions will kick in from midnight on Wednesday March 25, with Scotland most affected before snow moves into eastern England by the evening

These striking weather maps show the UK is set for a dramatic shift — with temperatures to plunge and snow to fall across at least 18 regions.

Snowfall is likely in the coming days across multiple areas, including Essex and Suffolk in the south, Powys in the west and the Scottish Highlands in the north. The maps, created by WXCharts using Metdesk data, depict several large white and grey patches across different parts of the nation, expected to arrive early on Wednesday March 25.

The wintry conditions are predicted to start as early as midnight on Wednesday and persist into the evening. Scotland appears to be the most impacted area, with a forecast for 3am showing council areas including Aberdeenshire, Argyll and Bute, and Perth and Kinross bracing for snow in the early hours. Temperatures are also anticipated to plummet to lows of -4C.

Parts of northern England, such as Northumberland and North Yorkshire, will also witness snow in the early hours, before it dissipates by evening and shifts into the East of England. By 6pm, lighter snow is forecasted to blanket parts of Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Essex and Norfolk, whilst depths across Scotland are predicted to rise to up to four inches.

Rainfall is also expected throughout the day, with many areas likely to see sleet build-up at some point. The Met Office also predicts a sudden shift in weather patterns this week, reports the Express.

Steven Keates, Met Office deputy chief forecaster, stated: “After a spell of mild and brighter weather, the UK will become increasingly unsettled in the coming days. A series of weather fronts will bring bouts of rain, strong winds and much colder air by midweek. Wednesday could be quite a shock to the system.”

It will be a huge change to the recent balmy weather. For instance, the mercury hit 16C in Cardiff and 15C in Ross-on-Wye, Herefordshire on Sunday. It was a particularly sunny day too, with 8.3 hours of sunshine recorded in Hurn, which is in Dorset.

But Jo Farrow, a meteorologist with Netweather, wrote on its blog: “For the new working week, the trend is to colder conditions with mention of snow showers from the northwest. It will become windy as the settled weather under the current high pressure is shoved aside by an Atlantic low pressure.

“This low pressure will bring rain and blustery winds to northwest Scotland on Monday, then slide south of Iceland towards the Norwegian Sea. Its cold front will bring rain down over central Britain and Northern Ireland, with the plunge of cold Arctic air following for the middle of this week.”

Conflict in Iran and supply issues on the Strait of Hormuz have caused petrol and diesel prices to go up.

The International Energy Agency (IEA) has warned that the disruption is the largest in the history of the global oil market.

The RAC shares that unleaded petrol has gone up 14.4p since the start of the Iran conflict, while diesel has gone up by 28.8p.

Energy bills are predicted to rise by more than £300 per year this summer as the war on Iran causes gas prices to spiral.

The government has stated that there is no shortage of fuel in the UK, with advice being to continue filling up as normal.

There are contingency plans in place under the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) if fuel rationing were needed.

In that scenario, some people might be curious to see what services would get priority.

What services would get priority in a UK fuel rationing plan?

The National Emergency Plan for Fuel was last updated by the DESNZ in April 2024.

Emergency and critical service vehicles would receive priority access to fuel in this scenario.

Utilities such as gas and electricity suppliers and water companies would have the next priority, followed by public transport vehicles.

Commercial vehicles would be up next, specifically ones fulfilling duties such as delivering food to supermarkets and making health-related deliveries.

Meanwhile, private drivers would face restrictions on how much fuel they could buy per filling station visit, and pumps could be closed overnight.

In an extreme scenario, the Government has the power to allocate how crude oil and other imported oil products are distributed across the UK entirely.

These measures would only be activated in a severe national shortage.

The Guardian shares that further elements of contingency plans could see speed limits cut by up to 10mph on some roads to lower fuel consumption.

This could be implemented on some motorways, where signage is also adjusted electronically on major routes.

However, the DESNZ is understood to be confident that the UK has a diverse and resilient fuel supply.

Jack Cousens, the head of roads policy at the AA, said: “Drivers should be assured that there are good fuel supplies and people should not change their fuelling habits.

“Nevertheless, advice to drive as efficiently as possible is something that drivers could adopt at all times to save both fuel and money.

“Reducing speed and braking less harshly are beneficial.

“Similarly, linking journeys together contributes to saving fuel.”

Horrifying new video captures the moment an Air Canada plane collided on the runway with a fire truck at New York City’s LaGuardia Airport, killing two pilots, injuring dozens of passengers and causing travel chaos.

Footage shows the Air Canada Express plane slamming into a Port Authority fire truck on the runway, where the emergency vehicle was responding to an issue on another plane late Sunday night.

The pilot and copilot were killed after landing in New York from Montreal with 72 passengers and four crew onboard. The crash destroyed much of the front cockpit area of the plane, which was operated by Jazz Aviation.

An audio recording revealed air traffic controllers were in a panic moments before the deadly collision. “Stop, stop, stop!” an air traffic control dispatcher is heard saying. A voice later adds: “I messed up.”

About 40 passengers and crew members were taken to nearby hospitals, some with serious injuries. Most had been released Monday morning, authorities said.

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said Monday that the deadly collision served as a reminder to “wear your seatbelts.”

LaGuardia reopened one runway at 2 p.m. Eastern Monday, though officials warned of continued delays and cancellations as a result of the crash.

The delays exacerbate ongoing extended wait times at U.S. airports, which have resulted from the partial government shutdown and a shortage of TSA agents.

Former Little Mix singer Jesy Nelson has admitted it’s ‘bittersweet’ seeing progress being made in the fight for babies to be screened for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).

It has been announced that Scotland will be the first part of the UK to screen babies for the rare muscle disease that Jesy’s daughters also have.

The 34-year-old star and her now ex-fiance, Zion Foster, announced earlier this year that her twins, Ocean Jade and Story Monroe, were diagnosed with the rare genetic condition known as SMA, which causes progressive muscle wasting.

She has since campaigned for all babies to be screened for it, as early treatment can help avoid some of the most devastating effects.

In a post on her Instagram Story on Monday, the Boyz hitmaker said: ‘Today my heart feels super heavy. It’s a very bittersweet moment knowing that Scotland had become the first UK nation to screen babies for SMA.

‘We’re so close yet so far.

‘I will never be able to understand why we still do not test for it here in England.’

According to the NHS, the condition causes muscle weakness, movement problems, breathing and swallowing difficulties, muscle tremors, and bone and joint problems.

Jesy said in January that her babies’ diagnosis would mean they are unlikely ever to be able to walk or regain their neck strength.

She has also previously said their prognosis means they are unlikely to make it to their third birthday, and in her newest update, revealed they had been fitted with leg splints to support their joints.

Her twins have had treatment, a one-off infusion that puts a missing gene back into their bodies to stop other muscles from dying; however, it does not help regain any muscles that have already died.

She continued: ‘To know that my girls lives and so many other children in England could look so different if this had been here for them.

‘But nevertheless I will keep fighting and pushing for change because nobody should ever have to go through this heartache.’

From today, all parents in Scotland will be offered SMA screening for their newborns, on about day four after birth.

After Jesy’s twins’ diagnosis, she launched a petition to get screening for SMA added to the newborn blood spot screening test, also known as the heel-prick test, which screens for serious health conditions.

The petition secured more than 100,000 signatures, which means it will be considered for a debate in the House of Commons.

Continuing her activism, she also became a patron of the charity Spinal Muscular Atrophy UK after meeting Health Secretary Wes Streeting earlier this year to speak about the life-changing impact early detection of the condition could have had on her twins.

Announcing her new role last month, the pop star wrote on social media that she felt ‘incredibly proud’ and it meant ‘so much to [her]’.

‘I’ve been deeply touched by the SMA community from the strength of the children, the resilience of the families, and the love that surrounds them every single day,’ Jesy penned.

‘I’ll be using my voice to keep raising awareness not only for my girls, but to support families going through the same experiences, and campaigning for the SMA test to be added to the newborn screening heel-prick test so more babies can get the help they need as early as possible.’

Jesy has made it known that she is ‘not going to stop’ talking about SMA until ‘something changes’ and has been inundated with well-wishes since taking Ocean and Story’s diagnoses public.

This has included messages from her former bandmates, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Perrie Edwards, and Jade Thirlwall, with Jesy admitting it has ‘healed’ her to be back in touch after several years of not speaking.

On The Smallzy Show, Leigh-Anne, who has her own twin daughters, said recently that she and the other two members ‘obviously’ all reached out to Jesy when the news broke in January.

‘I think she’s really incredible for spreading that awareness,’ the Don’t Say Love singer added.

Jesy also confirmed to Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary on This Morning that it was ‘lovely’ to hear from them.

‘They’re your sisters, aren’t they?’, Dermot asked.

‘Of course!’, Jesy agreed. ‘We were genuinely best friends, and things happen in life; it doesn’t always go how you think it’s going to, but three of us are mums now, I think we’ve all had time to heal; it’s been five, nearly six years, and I think it’s just one of those things that takes time.’

‘Who knows what will happen,’ she said of the possibility of reuniting, having left the group in 2020. ‘But since they’ve been reaching out, it’s lovely. It’s definitely healed a part of me, for sure.’

A new map shows areas believed to be within range of Iranian missile strikes after Tehran’s threat to target ‘parks, recreational areas and tourist destinations’

Iran threatened to target tourist sites across the world – and a map shows which locations may be within reach.

Iran’s top military spokesperson, General Abolfazl Shekarchi, warned on Friday that “parks, recreational areas and tourist destinations” worldwide will not be safe for the country’s enemies after the US and Israel launched their war against Tehran.

That same day, two Iranian missiles tried to target the joint US-UK military base in Diego Garcia, which lies in the Indian Ocean about 2,500 miles away from Iran. Defence Secretary John Healey said one failed and one was shot down.

It is not clear what kind of missiles were used but Sidharth Kaushal, from the London-based think tank the Royal United Services Institute, told the BBC it could have been a version of Iran’s Khorramshah missile, which is based on a single-stage North Korean model and has a range of more than 1,200 miles.

Iranian missiles are generally assessed to have a range of about 1,240 to 1,860 miles, with Israeli estimates suggesting they could reach up to 2,485 miles, according to the BBC. A map shows the countries which are within a 1,200-mile range of Iran, the Express reports.

Countries within 1,200-mile range of Iran:

• United Arab Emirates (UAE)
• Cyprus
• Egypt
• Turkey
• Israel
• Lebanon
• Syria
• Iraq
• Turkmenistan
• Saudi Arabia
• Yemen
• Oman
• Afghanistan
• Tajikistan
• Uzbekistan
• Kyrgyzstan
• Georgia
• Pakistan
• Russia
• Kazakhstan
• Jordan
• Kuwait
• Bahrain
• Qatar
• Ukraine

More than 1,500 people in Iran have been killed in US-Israeli strikes since February 28. In Lebanon, more than 1,000 people have been killed in Israeli strikes, and more than one million people have been displaced, according to the Lebanese government. UN peacekeepers in southern Lebanon report “intense gunfire and explosions” as Israeli ground forces fight Hezbollah militants.

Fifteen people have been killed in Israel, and 13 US service members have been killed in combat, along with a number of civilians on land and at sea in the Gulf region.

It comes after US President Donald Trump claimed in a Truth Social post on Monday that his country and Iran held “productive conversations” about a “complete and total resolution” to the war in the Middle East. Several outlets reported that Trump’s special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner have been negotiating with Iran’s parliament speaker, Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf.

However, Ghalibaf branded reports of talks between the US and Iran as “fake news”. “No negotiations have been held with the US, and fakenews is used to manipulate the financial and oil markets and escape the quagmire in which the US and Israel are trapped,” he said.

On March 19, Ras Laffan, the largest liquified natural gas (LNG) terminal in the world, supplying one-fifth of the world’s super-chilled fuel, was hit by Iranian missiles and drones. The Qatari terminal suffered substantial damage in the strikes – fires were raging across the gas-to-liquids facility within the complex, which covers 295 square kilometres – the size of a large city.

Investments worth tens if not hundreds of millions of dollars disappeared into thin air. Damage was estimated to be so extensive that QatarEnergy’s CEO, Saad Sherida al-Kaabi, said the company may have to declare a “force majeure” (non-fulfilment of orders due to circumstances outside their control) on long-term contracts. He said this could affect LNG supplies to Italy, Belgium, Korea and China “for up to five years”.

Similar to oil, gas exports from the Persian Gulf supplied about 20% of world demand. But gas (mostly methane) is a very different fuel from crude oil. To move it in liquified form, methane must be chilled to below -162°C.

But at these temperatures steel becomes brittle and shatters. So storing and transporting LNG in ships is expensive and very energy-intensive. Liquefaction and transportation of methane can easily consume 15% of the initial natural gas extracted.

It also means that the infrastructure that enables a highly flammable and explosive fuel to be handled at these extreme conditions has to be complex and consequently very expensive. Ras Laffan, for example, was built over decades and in several phases, costing tens of billions of dollars.

No quick fix

Interestingly, Qatar’s North Field and Iran’s South Pars gas field are part of the same massive geological structure, separated only by a maritime border in the Persian Gulf. Together, they form the world’s largest natural gas field.

So, Iran and Qatar are essentially exploiting the same gas reservoir the same way two people would use straws to drink from the same bottle. The US president, Donald Trump, now appears to have retreated from his threats to blow up “the entirety” of the Iranian gas field – but this geological fact had always made his comments quite ridiculous.

While Qatar exports most of its production, Iran uses the bulk of its gas domestically (although some exports go via pipeline to Turkey and Iraq).

But the damage to the complex has been done, and it affects some 17% of the country’s LNG infrastructure. Repairing it will take a long time, precisely because of the complexity of LNG projects.

The plant must be warmed up slowly before repairs and cooled down slowly after. Rapid temperature changes can cause pipes to bend or even snap. And parts of the plant are bulky and hard to transport. The main heat exchangers can be more than 50 metres long, and compressors, turbines and liquefaction trains can easily weigh 5,000 metric tonnes. Storage tanks must be built of special alloys with double walls and customised insulation.

In other words, gas is very different to oil. Recent events have shown just how vulnerable the LNG supplies from the Gulf region are. They are going to affect Asia most, as about three-quarters of Qatar’s LNG ends up there – particularly China, India, Taiwan, South Korea and Pakistan, as well as others.

Most of the rest ends up in Europe – Italy, Belgium, Poland and a small amount to the UK (the UK imported only about 1% of its supply from Qatar last year). The majority of the UK’s imports come from its own UK production in the North Sea and imports from Norway and the US.

However, LNG is a part of the global energy market and the shortfall in production will result in higher prices globally. Gas will end up with the highest bidder, while some nations will probably go back to using coal. This may especially be the case with India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and a few other Asian countries that are very sensitive to high fuel prices.

Some European countries may even see coal as a cheaper option. Following the events in the Gulf, this “spark spread” (the profit margin from gas-fired electricity generation) has fallen, narrowing the gap in Europe with the “dark spread” (profit from generating power using coal).

The benchmark for European gas prices, the Dutch Title Transfer Facility, has more than doubled since mid-January. Coal prices have picked up due to higher demand, but not as much. Unlike oil, the LNG shortage has turned from a logistical problem – the closure of the strait of Hormuz – into a structural one. The damage to the Qatari production facility may take several years to repair. This means that gas prices – already high – are likely to remain elevated for some time.

Wayne Rooney has downplayed the importance of Arsenal’s Carabao Cup final defeat to Manchester City on the Premier League title race.

Man City secured the first piece of silverware of the season courtesy of a 2-0 win over Arsenal at Wembley on Sunday.

The Gunners were hoping to lift their first major trophy since 2020 but were undone by Nico O’Reilly’s quickfire second-half brace.

Speaking after the final, Gary Neville suggested Man City had ‘landed a psychological blow’ on Arsenal as they attempt to reel in the Premier League leaders.

Arsenal boast a nine-point lead at the top of the table but are aware City have a game in hand and a home match against them to close the gap.

Rooney doubts the Carabao Cup final will have a huge impact on the title race, however, and is still backing Arsenal to lift the Premier League trophy for the first time in 22 years.

Asked how big an impact Man City’s win will have on the title race, Rooney said on his BBC podcast: ‘I don’t think it will.

‘Arsenal are still in a very good position, as good a position as you can be at this stage of the season.

‘For Man City to catch them I think they have to win every game and Arsenal drop seven points. City will need to beat them at home as well.

‘So I think it’s a tough ask. You never know but I just think Arsenal need to dust themselves down and move on from this quickly.

‘I’m sure they will go back to winning games and see the title out. I just think Arsenal are too good, too efficient and too strong defensively to let it slip from here.’

Asked whether he felt Arsenal could ‘bottle’ the Premier League title, the Manchester United and England legend added: ‘I think this team is different. From all the things I have seen, they look mentally stronger.’

Jamie Carragher also still expects Arsenal to beat Manchester City to the Premier League title despite the Carabao Cup final blow.

Cinderella has been kicked out of the dance early for the second straight season.

Following a madness-promising first day of upsets, the NCAA Tournament has turned into a high-major affair.

The Sweet 16 invite is for power-conference programs only.

Advocates for fewer automatic qualifiers and bracket expansion will have a field day with this one.

“I think parity is great for the game, but things change,” said Arizona coach Tommy Lloyd, who spent 21 seasons as an assistant at Gonzaga.

The Big Ten is the big conference on the block, pushing through a league-record six teams into the Sweet 16 — three in the same region.

The SEC has four Sweet 16 teams, the Big 12 three, the Big East two, the ACC one.

Mid-majors: zero for the second straight season.

East Region

The top three seeds made it through the East.

St. John’s is the Darling.

The fifth-seeded Red Storm (30-6) blew a 12-point lead against Kansas, but Dylan Darling, who hadn’t hit a shot all day, scored at the buzzer for a 67-65 win that sends St. John’s to the Sweet 16 for the first time since 1999.

Next up for the Johnnies is a date with Duke on Friday in Washington.

The Blue Devils (34-2) and star freshman Cameron Boozer had an opening 1-vs.-16 scare against Siena but took it out on TCU with an 81-58 win to reach the Sweet 16 for the third straight season.

The second regional semifinal likely will leave both teams bruised and battered.

UConn (31-5) lost in the second round last season following consecutive national championships but clamped down on UCLA to earn a Sweet 16 return.

Michigan State (27-7) is in the Sweet 16 for the 17th time under coach Tom Izzo, led by the dynamic duo of Jeremy Fears Jr. and Coen Carr.

South Region

No. 2 seed Houston avoided having to play reigning national champion Florida — Iowa made sure of that — and will be playing at home for the South Region.

The Cougars (30-6) will be surrounded by Big Ten teams, starting with a 2-mile trip from campus against Illinois on Thursday.

The Illini (26-8) are big — bigger than any team in the country.

They used that size to their advantage, clobbering Penn and VCU to reach the Sweet 16 for the second time in three seasons under coach Brad Underwood.

The second East semifinal will be the battle of the corn.

No. 4 seed Nebraska (28-6) is the closest thing the Sweet 16 has to an underdog — only because it had never won an NCAA Tournament game prior to this season.

No. 9 seed Iowa (23-12) finished 10-10 in the Big Ten but has bullied its way through the bracket so far, reaching the Sweet 16 for the first time since 1999 by ending Florida’s repeat bid.

Midwest Region

Michigan has looked every bit a top seed, winning its first two games by an average of 22 points.

Next up is a showdown with No. 4 seed Alabama on Friday in Chicago.

The Crimson Tide (25-9) washed away Texas Tech by raining down 19 3-pointers in a 90-65 thrashing to reach the Sweet 16 for the fourth straight season.

No. 2 seed Iowa State took a big hit when All-America forward Joshua Jefferson sprained his ankle in the Cyclones’ opener and didn’t play against Kentucky.

It did little to slow them down; the Cyclones (29-7) spun away from Kentucky 82-63 to reach the Sweet 16 for the third time under coach T.J. Otzelberger.

Iowa State hopes to have Jefferson back for Friday’s game and will likely need him against Tennessee.

The No. 6 Vols (24-11) have been Sweet 16 regulars under coach Rick Barnes and made it four straight by outlasting Virginia 79-72.

West Region

The West has an SEC team disguised as Cinderella.

Texas has a world of resources and plays in the SEC yet found itself in Dayton, Ohio, as a No. 11 seed.

The Longhorns (21-14) pulled it together at just the right time in their first season under coach Sean Miller, knocking off No. 3 seed Gonzaga to become the sixth First Four team to reach the Sweet 16.

That earns them a spot in the West semifinals against No. 2 Purdue on Thursday in San Jose, California.

Coach Matt Painter has molded the Boilermakers (29-8) into a model of consistency, reaching the Sweet 16 seven times the last nine seasons — including the 2024 title game — with their 79-69 win over Miami.

The showdown between No. 1 Arizona and No. 4 Alabama will be an NBA scout’s delight.

The Wildcats (34-2) go eight deep in potential future pros and guard Jaden Bradley has a knack for making the biggest plays at the biggest moments.

John Calipari set the standard for recruiting NBA lottery picks at Kentucky, and it’s been no different in his second season in Fayetteville. Fabulous freshman Darius Acuff Jr. was the star in Arkansas’ 94-88 win over High Point, scoring 36 points as the Razorbacks secured their second straight Sweet 16 berth.
