Britain is likely to be covered by a huge wall of snow and rain as unsettled weather sweeps across the entire country next week. According to weather charts generated by WXCharts, areas ranging from Fort William in Scotland to Cornwall in England are expected to experience freezing conditions, leaving towns and cities shivering in the cold.

The maps for November 17 show layers of snow accumulating around Fort William, Glasgow and Inverness, while the rest of the country is expected to be hit by heavy downpours.

The unsettled weather is forecast to arrive across the UK at around 6am on November 17.

According to the weather maps, temperatures are set to plunge to -7C near Fort William. Elsewhere in Scotland, including Glasgow, Inverness and Edinburgh, temperatures are expected to range between -3C and -5C, the maps suggest.

It comes as the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) issued a yellow cold health alert on Tuesday for the North West and West Midlands from 9am on Thursday to midday on Saturday.

The agency warned that low temperatures can increase demand for health and care services and called on people to check on loved ones and neighbours.

Temperatures are expected to dip well below the seasonal average by Thursday and Friday, bringing widespread frost across many parts of the country.

In some sheltered rural locations particularly prone to cold weather, the mercury could fall to -6C or -7C.

Overnight frost is expected to develop in many areas, particularly across rural parts of the country, although colder conditions are forecast to become largely restricted to southern regions as the weekend progresses.
