Bolton has been forecast its first bout of snowfall early next week.

The BBC forecast predicts that the borough may be in for a bit of the white stuff on Monday 16, and Tuesday, January 17.

While on Monday, between 7am and 1pm, Bolton may see some 'sleet showers' with temperatures increasing from 1C to 4C, later on that evening the sleet is set to turn into 'light snow showers' by 11pm.

From 11pm onwards, as the temperature stays at a steady 1C throughout the night, the BBC predicts those light showers will turn into 'heavy snow showers' between 2am and 5am.

As residents wake up on Tuesday morning, they will be greeted by light snow showers again from 6am until midday, when the forecast says it will once again turn to sleet showers which will continue for the rest of the day and through the night.

Temperatues on Tuesday will fall to one with highs of four degrees.
