freezing cold in iowa. live pictures coming of the —22 degrees weather. after months of campaigning, finally, republican voters, a few hundred thousands of them in iowa, will have the opportunity to weigh in on who their party's 2024 presidential nominee will be. we will have full coverage. hello there. there's a risk of seeing much more widespread disruption due to snow in scotland tomorrow, as we'll see in a moment. mind you, i don't fancy many people have been able to get down this snow—covered lane in aberdeenshire. aberdeenshire has been one of the places where we have seen some of the heaviest snow. of course, we've still got strong winds around, as well. more of the same to come through the rest of today. if anything, the showers will get even heavier for north—east scotland and across the northern isles, so some further significant accumulations of snow. a few snow showers too for northern ireland and east anglia. wherever you are, it's going to feel freezing cold today. overnight tonight, we've got further snow showers continuing to pile in. it's another night where there will
2:56 pm
be a widespread and sharp frost. temperatures in the towns and cities —2 to —4 pretty widely, but a lot colder than that in rural areas. tomorrow, england and wales, after that cold and frosty locally icy start, we've got a day of relatively dry weather, sunshine, but it's going to stay on the cold side. temperatures not getting that much above freezing — three orfour degrees, pretty common. further northwards, though, we've got some problems on the way. you see, a little area of low pressure is going to be moving into this cold air with a spell of snow forecast, particularly focused across parts of scotland. but temperatures do vary across this weather system. we'll probably see a bit of rain mixed in, lower elevations for northern ireland, southern scotland, northern england, but certainly across the northern half of scotland, you're much more likely to see snow coming right down to low elevations and a lot of snow, as well. how much? well, we could be looking at something like five to ten centimetres running even through the central lowlands of scotland tomorrow. that's going to be enough to cause
2:57 pm
some significant problems. but over hills, maybe as much as 20 centimetres. further snow, then, overnight and some snow getting into pennine areas. so, all in all, i think through tuesday, we are likely to see some disruptive weather due to snowfall, particularly focused in scotland, including across the central lowlands. more snow to come as well through wednesday. that's going to cause further significant problems. this area of low pressure running in from the atlantic, well, it looks like that's going to give us a tickling of snowfall across the far south. in europe, 20 or 30 centimetres of snow. that's not that far away from us, but it's probably across the north of the uk that will continue to see the largest problems due to snow drifting around in those strong winds. bye for now.
