Warm Weekend Fades as Rain Turns to Snow by Monday in UK Uplands and Northern New England, With Sunday Severe Risk in Western Pennsylvania

Forecasters expect a Sunday night cooldown to concentrate snow on higher ground, creating a messy Monday commute.

Overview

  • Saturday brings mild sunshine for many before a cooler northwesterly flow advances on Sunday.
  • The Met Office flags the Scottish Highlands, northern Scotland, the Lake District and Pennines, North Wales mountains, and Northern Ireland uplands for hill snow and wintry showers.
  • Southern New England is forecast to see rain Sunday with a Monday morning rain‑snow mix, while northern New Hampshire likely picks up several inches and slippery travel.
  • In the Boston area, forecasters call for slushy coatings with localized 2–3 inches south of the Mass Pike, with most accumulation on non‑paved surfaces and a hard freeze Monday night.
  • Western Pennsylvania has a Sunday Severe Weather Alert Day with scattered strong to severe thunderstorms and damaging winds the primary threat, and forecasters stress remaining uncertainty on timing and amounts.
