UK cities are expected to face severe winter weather as a 'Beast from the East' storm brings snow and extremely low temperatures.

The UK is bracing for significant winter weather as advanced weather maps from WXCharts indicate that a 'Beast from the East' storm is set to impact 31 cities. This event is forecasted to occur early next month, on March 11, with large portions of the country, particularly in the north including Scotland and northern England, likely to experience heavy snowfall. Residents are being warned to prepare for adverse weather conditions as flurries are expected in various regions.

In addition to the northern areas, southern cities such as Bristol, Bath, and London may also see snowfall, predicted to accumulate between 2 to 4 centimeters. This anticipated weather pattern will not only bring snow but is also expected to cause a significant drop in temperatures, with conditions dipping to -4 degrees Celsius in many parts of the country. The impending blizzard-like conditions are causing concern among local residents and authorities alike, as preparations for potential disruptions are underway.

The 'Beast from the East' phenomenon has become a familiar term in the UK, often associated with severe weather patterns originating from Siberia that envelop regions in cold air and snow. With the threat of extensive cold and snowfall looming, the government and weather agencies are likely to issue updates and advisories as the date approaches, impacting travel, transport, and daily life across the affected cities.
