Met Office forecasts 'dangerously cold air' in Canada will raise temperatures in the UK

After a frosty start to February, temperatures are set to rise this weekend as an area of high pressure from the south takes charge. Temperatures are set to reach double figures with very little rain in the forecast.

The reason for the milder area is actually down to "dangerously cold air" moving into parts of Canada and the northeast for USA over the weekend.

Met Office forecasters explain: "This temperature contrast will strengthen and buckle the jet stream - and allow an unusually intense area of high pressure to form close to the UK by Sunday."
