The Met Office has warned people in Wales to expect snow, rain and strong winds as a yellow weather warning for rain has been issued for south Wales on Monday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">The long range forecast for the UK details &#8220;cyclonic patterns&#8221; dominating the weather bringing cold temperatures and the likelihood of some snow.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">From Friday, February 13 until Sunday, 22 the Met Office forecast states: &#8220;Predominantly cyclonic patterns are expected to dominate the UK. The early part of this period could see colder conditions becoming established more widely for a time, bringing with it the likelihood of some snow, primarily to the north and northeast. However this should offer a few days respite from the wet weather across the south.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">&#8220;By the end of this period, the track of Atlantic depressions may shift a little further north than during the last few weeks. This will maintain broadly unsettled weather, with further spells of rain and perhaps strong winds at times.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">&#8220;Many parts may become somewhat milder, given more of a westerly influence, though there remains the chance that colder conditions could linger towards the northeast.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Snow forecast for parts of North Wales\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/0_Screenshot-2026-02-08-203403.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p aria-label=\"Snow forecast for parts of North Wales\" class=\"ImageCaption_caption-title__ccyQU\" data-testid=\"caption-title\">Snow forecast for parts of North Wales(Image: Met Office )<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Weather maps for Friday show snow across mid, south and North Wales with snow staying in south and near the coast in the afternoon.
