Coldest winter for 13 years

Snow will hit the UK next week during the coldest winter for 13 years, forecasters have said.

Freezing temperatures are set to take hold on Sunday, bringing heavy snow and bitterly cold winds from Russia on Monday and Tuesday.

People will need to wrap up warm and expect disruption on the roads as the cold snap moves in from the east.

Rachel Vince of MeteoGroup, the weather division of the Press Association, said: "It's looking like temperatures will fall away during Sunday night and Monday, while next week is looking distinctly colder than this week.
