Brits enjoying a brief reprieve from the bone-chilling temperatures are set for more snow and ice pain tonight as the Met Office warns blizzards are set to return with temperatures plunging to -14C.
The West Country-based forecaster has issued a total of three severe weather warnings for snow and ice across the UK, with as much as 10cm of the white stuff expected in parts.
The first weather warning runs from 5am today until tomorrow morning. They warn a combination of rain, sleet and snow followed by ice could spark transport chaos and make journeys treacherous with an increased risk of injuries from falls on icy surfaces.
