Weather Warnings
Snow and for a time blizzard conditions may disrupt travel for parts of northwest Scotland in association with Storm Dave.
Invalid Date – Sun 5 Apr, 02:00
Rain arriving from the south through Saturday afternoon is likely to turn to sleet and snow over hills as it meets cold air across central and northwest Scotland. During the evening snow may turn heavier and as winds increase, blizzard conditions with drifting and blowing snow likely to lead to very poor visibility across the hills and mountains of the northwest of Scotland. Accumulating snow on roads will mostly be above 200 m elevation, where 5-10 cm is possible and a small chance of 10-20 cm. As the area of snow clears to the northeast early Sunday, more scattered isolated sleet and snow showers will follow into Sunday daytime. These are unlikely to produce further accumulations.
