On Friday morning, temperatures across the UK will hover between -2 and 2C and throughout the day are not expected to reach any higher than 6C.
For most, it will be less cold and frosty than recent mornings – although there is a risk of ice, with parts of England and Wales set for rain, sleet and a little snow.
More significant snow will once again come into northern and western Scotland on Friday.
Friday night is expected to be the coldest of the autumn so far, with temperatures across north-east Scotland plummeting to around -12C.
Elsewhere, temperatures will rise after an early frost as Storm Bert approaches from the Atlantic.
By Saturday, Wales, central and southern England, could see temperatures up to 12-15C.
But heavy rain is also expected at times over the weekend which the Environment Agency says could lead to some localised flooding.
