Storm Dave brings heavy snow and strong winds to northern UK

What happened: Storm Dave is set to hit northern UK with heavy snow, blizzards, and gale-force winds this Easter weekend. Weather warnings have been issued across Scotland, northern England, and Wales, with up to 30cm of snow expected.

Why it matters:

  • Travel disruptions and power outages are likely during the holiday period.
  • Communities in northern regions face safety risks and potential delays.

MNN Take: The Met Office warnings aim to prepare residents and authorities for severe weather, while forecasts suggest warmer temperatures may return next week, easing conditions.
