this is from a local weather station in coventry..i wldnt mind this one bit
After a brief milder interlude, it looks as if the cold weatheris back this week, with the potential for copious amounts of snow in our region over the next two weeks or so, though this is most likely over the Warwickshire hills, with rain sleet and wet snow perhaps over lower lying parts and in towns and cities. It is certainly going to be an interesting spell of wintry weather, that's for sure!
On Monday, it will be dry and bright with sunny spells, though after a hard overnight frost, temperatures will only recover slowly.
In a moderate easterly breeze maximum temperatures may only rise to 2°C - well below average for the 28th of December in Coventry (6.7°C).
Under clear skies this evening, there will be an early ground frost as minima fall back to 0°C in the early hours of Tuesday; as cloud and rain edges in from the south towards dawn and meets this cold air, the rain will turn to sleet and wet snow snow into Tuesday, especially over the higher ground to the south and north of Coventry.
<P class=style5>The early rain and sleet will turn increasingly to snow during the day with highs of just 2°C or so, feeling cold in a brisk easterly breeze. Snow accumulations will be greatest over local hills of course, though there should be a covering almost everywhere by afternoon.
Outlook - further rain sleet and snow is likely at times; briefly milder on Wednesday then sub-zero by New Year's Day with the potential for a lot more snow.
