Met Office forecaster Jason Kelly said Brits would feel the mercury drop in coming hours. He said: “The transition to lower temperatures will be noticeable over the weekend. It will become rather cold next week with lower-than-average temperatures across much of the UK, accentuated by brisk easterly winds in the south.
“As the prevailing weather conditions will be characterised by high pressure, a good deal of settled weather is likely. Clearer skies and a marked reduction in precipitation are expected, although any showers that do occur are likely to be wintry in nature. A combination of overnight freezing temperatures, saturated ground and calm winds mean increasing risks of frost, fog and icy conditions.”
The Met Office said temperatures tonight are likely to dip to -4C in parts of rural south-west England. Forecasters also said there is a chance the mercury will drip to -6C in rural areas along the Welsh border in Shropshire and north Herefordshire tomorrow night.
