The UK Met Office has issued a Yellow warning for snow and ice, predicting temperatures to drop below freezing this week. Sub-zero temperatures, including -11.2°C in Aberdeenshire, have already caused significant disruption. The cold Arctic air is expected to bring further snow showers, particularly affecting East and West Midlands, Northern Ireland, and Wales. Train services were canceled, and more than 200 schools closed. Panic buying of essentials like milk, bread, and eggs has been reported. Travel disruptions are expected, particularly on national highways and train routes due to heavy snow accumulation.
