It comes amid a bitterly cold few days for the region
Weather experts are forecasting snow for three days in Cambridge. It comes amid a bitterly cold few days for the region, with temperatures often staying around zero degrees or below.
Meteorologists are forecasting a sunny yet cold start to the week. From Tuesday to Thursday (6th to 8th), Cambridge could see some snowfall in the area.
BBC Weather currently forecasts some sleet and a gentle breeze at 2pm on January 6. This is followed by light snow between 5pm on January 6 to 11am on January 7. It might not stay for long, however, as the experts forecast it to turn to sleet between 11am and 4pm.
Snow will return in the evening and continue into January 8th, when some more sleet and, later, light rain are forecast for Cambridge. It will remain relatively chilly towards the end of the week, before picking up from January 11th onwards.
The BBC’s outlook for Cambridgeshire from Monday to Wednesday says: “A cold and dry day on Monday with crisp winter sunshine. Dry and bright for much of Tuesday, but some areas of cloud may start to move in late in the day and into the evening. Cloud will clear during the morning on Wednesday, resulting in a dry day with plenty of wintry sunshine.”
The Met Office says similar: “Mainly dry and sunny Monday, some coastal snow showers. More changeable Tuesday and Wednesday with a chance of rain or snow. Very cold and rather breezy initially, less so later.”
