Brits in parts of the country could see a white Christmas late in the day as an Arctic blast comes in but for most areas it is set to be wet and windy.
This week has been milder after the freezing temperatures earlier in the month and it will be similar over the weekend with plenty of showers around.
But while the mercury will generally be above normal in the UK on Saturday and then the morning of Christmas Day, it will start getting colder by the afternoon and evening.
