Storm Ciaran is reportedly on its way to the UK
Some forecasters are predicting a deep freeze for the UK with -17C temperatures set to arrive from Scandinavia - but the Met Office says it isn't convinced. Forecasters at the Met Office have broken their silence on claims a -6C freeze could spread across the UK in the coming weeks heading into Christmas, Birmingham Live reports.
"In between these spells, it is always possible for a calmer period where slightly cooler conditions can get a brief hold, bringing overnight frosts or lower-than-average temperatures. However, there isn’t anything in the forecast which suggests a prolonged or much-colder than normal period of weather before early November."
