Brits are set for -7C Arctic blast next week and up to 15 centimetres of snow while the Met Office has given an update on a Beast from the East hitting at the start of March.
Mild weather is expected to continue through the coming days before the mercury drops quite suddenly mid-way through next week with widespread subzero temperatures.
There is a yellow warning for strong winds from the Met Office, though, for this Friday which covers Scotland and the northeast of England.
