Brits are bracing for an Arctic blast at the end of next week bringing heavy snow up and down the country with up to 50cm falling in Scotland.
Spring may be arriving later this month but for now the weather remains very wintry and it is set to get colder before the temperatures start to rise.
People will need to wrap up warm next week as icy conditions sweep in bringing sub-zero temperatures and there will be snow flurries which will be deep in many areas.
