Advanced weather modelling maps suggest widespread snow is heading to the UK.
Yesterday (Friday, November 17) the Met Office forecast for the end of this month and the start of December mentioned "wintry showers". "Temperatures will most-likely be around average for the period as a whole, but as is normal in December, occasional frost and showers of a wintry flavour are possible," the national weather agency said.
Maps from WX Charts indicate that December 2 will be when people right across the country get their first snow this winter. They show a massive weather system stretching from the north of Scotland right down to the south coast of England, bringing intense rain to some regions and heavy snow to others.

The data shows snow could be coming down at a rate of around 2cm per hour in the Midlands and the north of England. The Scottish Highlands as well as parts of East Anglia and the southeast can also expect some of the white stuff.
Cities including Newcastle, Manchester and Birmingham all look to be in the firing line for snow. Only people in Northern Ireland, Wales and the southwest of England look likely to miss the monster weather front entirely.
Exacta Weather forecaster James Madden said "one to two" wintry blasts could be on the cards towards the end of November and start of December. He said: "The worst hit areas also look likely to be across the northern half of the country for this period and this does also include snow to lower levels in these parts too.
"However, as we get nearer the time, it is now also becoming increasingly likely that we will see some of this snow reaching some much lower levels of the country, and even parts as far south as the Midlands, Central/Southern England will be brought into the mix for snow within this period too."
