Brits enjoying the spring sunshine have been told to prepare for miserable weekend weather, owing to an incoming wave of rain and snow.
A "marked difference" in temperatures and a drastic change in conditions is likely to hit as early as Friday, according to the Met Office, and looks destined to stick around until at least the start of next week.
The change comes as warm mid-Atlantic air blown up from the Iberian peninsula is replaced by chilly northerly gusts from the Arctic Circle, marking an end to the settled and warm weather dominating for much of the last few days.
