A new interactive weather map shows exactly where and when snow is expected to fall this week. Flurries are forecast from Monday night heading into Tuesday morning for parts of England, potentially bringing travel chaos with it.

The first of the wintery weather is set to arrive on Monday evening and will continue throughout the week. The snow is set to peak on Saturday November 23 with heavy snowfall across much of the country.

Northern England looks likely to see more snow though flurries in the Midlands are also possible. Latest weather maps show forecasts of light snow in the West Midlands for most of the week and "severe" snowfall on Saturday. Explore the map below to check forecasts in your area.

The forecasts have come from Open Weather who use a number of data sources from global meteorological agencies such as the Met Office. The weather station at Rhyl in Wales will see the worst of it with a cumulative total of almost two inches of snow forecast to fall over the course of the next six days.

Sheffield will see the next most with a combined one-and-a-half inches forecast over the course of the week. That’s followed by Leek in Staffordshire with 1.5 inches, Rochdale in Greater Manchester with 1.3 inches, Waddington in Lincolnshire with 0.8 inches, and Bingley in West Yorkshire also with 0.8 inches.

Daytime temperatures are set to plummet towards freezing this week as the country gets hit by an Arctic blast. It will be much colder than the average for mid-November with wintry conditions arriving earlier than usual.

Ukrainians find new energy sources to beat blackouts as winter arrives
Standing on the rooftop of a 16-storey residential apartment building in Ukraine's capital Kyiv, Valerii Pyndyk pointed to several rows of solar panels. Pyndyk hopes the installation - one of the first of its kind by residents in Kyiv - will help about 1,000 families living in the building get through what could prove Ukraine's most difficult winter since the start of Russia's invasion. The two previous winters of the war were already challenging, but Russia has now intensified its attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure, with at least 11 major missile and drone strikes since March.
