Icy weather is on the way with an Arctic chill expected to grip the country at the weekend.

Weathermen have warned that temperatures will plunge below zero with parts of the country getting blizzards, icy winds and wintry showers.

Forecaster John Hutchinson said: "You will feel a sharp drop in temperature on Friday and by the end of the night there will be sleet and snow in northern Scotland.

"Places like the North Yorkshire Moors and Norfolk will see wintry showers, with strong winds all the way down the east coast.

"Daytime temperatures on Saturday are likely to be between 3C and 6C, falling to below zero at night."
