Jacob Jarvis17 December 2019

Temperatures could plummet to -4C across parts of the UK with frost expected to set in overnight.

Parts of Scotland and northern England saw a dusting of snow today and could see light showers again into tomorrow morning.

Though that is expected to be the last of the UK's snow for the foreseeable future, according to the Met Office.

"It's going to be fairly chilly, with 8C or 9C highs," forecaster Simon Partridge told the Standard.

Tuesday into Wednesday could even see as low as -5C, he said.

Images from areas in Scotland showed a blanketing of snow, with Balmoral looking picturesque under a white cover.

There is a yellow warning for snow and ice for parts of the north of Scotland active from now until 9am.
