Storm Corrie will be no different named as the “snow bomb” could move in from December 27. As a south-western front of rain and wind moves across the United Kingdom, there is “potential for some snowfall’.
If the pressure contained within the storm deepens by 24millibars in 24 hours, it will earn the title of “weather bomb”.
The resulting snowfall could then wreak havoc for shivering Brits up and down the country.
It comes as British Weather Services meteorologist Jim Dale warned of another major storm – dubbed Storm Corrie – before the New Year.
