Liverpool weather forecast as Met Office issues more UK weather warnings

Strong winds and heavy snow are expected to hit the UK with more warnings about significant flooding.

Merseyside is not impacted by the warnings, and is set to escape the worst weather, though with three storms in recent days, many are keeping an eye on the forecast.

The Met Office has issued a yellow warning for wind across north-east England, Cumbria, North Yorkshire and parts of Scotland from 6am to 3pm on Wednesday.

A second yellow warning for wind and snow covers much of Scotland and Northern Ireland from 1pm on Wednesday until 3pm on Thursday - with up to 10cm of snow likely at even low levels and the possibility of 70mph gusts on coasts.

Forecasters said frequent heavy snow showers are expected, along with very gusty winds and a small chance of frequent lightning affecting some places.

Liverpool can expect more settled weather, though Thursday will be chilly.

Here is the Met Office forecast for the rest of the week.

Wednesday

Cloud is set to creep in over the morning, bringing outbreaks of rain and drizzle, and wind.

Highs of 11C that feel more like 7C.

Heavy rain will spread overnight, accompanied by strong winds.

This eases through the early hours, but it will turn colder with clearing skies and scattered wintry showers.

Thursday

Thursday will be much colder, with sunny spells and scattered wintry showers, with some snow accumulations over hills.

Brisk winds will make it feel bitterly cold.

Lows of 5C with a real feel of -2C.

Friday to Sunday

Wintry showers will start to ease on Thursday night to leave a frosty start on Friday, which will see much more settled weather.

We can expect sunshine and lighter winds.

It will be windier again over the weekend with rain possible heading into Sunday.
