Snow has hit the U.K. big time this week, with as much as six inches in some parts, creating traffic gridlock.

Heavy rains are expected to follow this evening (with flood warnings in effect in the Midlands, the South West and East Anglia), followed then by uncharacteristically warm weather by Thursday. Temperatures are predicted to reach 54 F in the South West, 52 F in London and 48 F in the North, Midlands and Scotland.

Talk about temperamental weather. The only thing missing is the heat wave! Maybe next week?
