If you've delayed digging out your winter woolies, now’s the time to act.

Plunging temperaturs and strong winds are set to make the weekend a nippy one.

Temperatures will struggle to rise above 7C and winds could reach gale force.

Those attending tonight’s rugby match at Sandy Park should put on an extra layer or two.

The cold snap comes in marked contrast to the recent conditions which led to it being the second mildest start to November on record.

The Met Office has issued weather warnings for snow, wind or ice for most of the UK

There will be widespread frosts tonight and into Sunday with 65mph gales due to hit Devon, Cornwall and west Wales.

"The combination of rain, sleet and snow and dropping temperatures will also lead to a risk of ice in places, particularly over high level routes on Saturday morning," said a spokesman from the Met Office.

Frank Saunders, the Met Office's chief operational meteorologist, added: "The Met Office is forecasting strong winds and some snow for this weekend which means there is the likelihood of some difficult driving conditions and possible disruption to transport.

"With this in mind, if you have travel plans over the weekend, we'd advise that you keep an eye on the forecast and warnings for your area.”

But there is some good news!

Warmer weather is predicted from Monday.
