Nottingham snow live: Exactly when Nottingham cold snap will be ended by heavy rain - but warmer weather

Nottingham’s cold snap is set to come to an abrupt end later this week with heavy rain and rising temperatures, according to BBC Weather.

Last night the city experienced heavy snowfall as Arctic air brought freezing temperatures to the East Midlands, with many areas seeing a good few inches of the white stuff.

While there are no longer any Met Office warnings covering Nottingham, the East Midlands remains under an amber Cold Weather Alert issued by the UK Health Security Agency.

The event, which expires at 6pm on Saturday, November 23, warns of “a rise in deaths” due to freezing temperatures over the next few days.

Between Wednesday, November 20 and Friday, November 22, temperatures in Nottingham are predicted to remain below average despite plenty of sunshine.

However, the period of cold weather is forecast to end on Saturday, with torrential rain and rising temperatures.
