The Met Office has revealed whether the UK can expect to see anymore snow this winter.

February can see some cooler temperatures, particularly in northern England and Scotland as part of a ‘more unsettled regime’.

The Met Office said: ‘The most likely scenario for the first part of February is a changeable, unsettled regime to continue to dominate UK weather.

‘Towards the muddle of the month, however, there is a potential for some colder spells of weather.’

But forecasters warned the second part of the month can see some more ‘wintry conditions’, but it too early to say whether we should hope for some more snow.

‘There is an increasing likelihood of more settled conditions with winds arriving from the north,’ The Met Office said.

‘This would increase the chance of some colder spells, with a greater likelihood of wintry conditions at times, particularly in the north and east.’

It comes after Brits enjoyed a warmer than average January.
