Brits are set for temperatures to plummet after the weekend and there could be heavy snow for much of the country by mid February with over 30 centimetres falling in Scotland.
The UK will have a relatively mild and cloudy weekend due to a weather front which is squeezed in between a low pressure coming from the Atlantic and a high from the continent.
But by next week the high pressure is likely to take control bringing settled but colder weather with temperatures again dropping well below 0C across the country.
