SCOTLAND could see a fresh batch of snow later this month, according to weather charts.
WXCharts’ forecast maps indicate that cold polar air will bring up to 114 hours of snow to parts of central and northern Scotland.
The maps suggest parts of the Highlands will see non-stop snow and that up to 10cm could fall between March 27 and March 31.
The Met Office, meanwhile, predicts a dry but cold end to March.

Its forecast reads: "Dry for most places at first on Thursday (March 21), but rain will quickly spread from the northwest across all areas. The heaviest and most persistent rain will be in the northwest, with relatively little rain reaching the southeast.
"Strong winds are also expected, particularly along coasts. Through Friday and the weekend, northwesterly winds will bring a mixture of sunny spells and showers, some of these heavy.
"A drier spell may develop later in the weekend with temperatures likely to be below normal for many areas. Into the following week, more unsettled conditions will probably develop across parts of the UK, these most likely to affect southern areas. Northern areas are more likely to be dry but also colder."
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
