Derby weather: The exact time snow is forecast to fall in Derby next week

Derby is set to experience sub-zero temperatures and snowfall next week as 'arctic air' sweeps the UK.

Temperatures could plummet to as low as -3C here in Derby, with snow flurries and ice on both the Met Office and BBC weather forecasts.

As temperatures continue to drop the Met Office has warned that areas in the UK could be hit with 'substantial' snow.

The Met Office's Head of Situational Awareness, Will Lang said: “There will be a resurgence in the really cold weather through the weekend and that spreads across the whole of the UK during the early part of next week.

"Initially, this means there will be more in the way of showers around the coasts, turning increasingly to snow for many areas, especially further north.”
