Image source, BBC Weather Watchers/AnnieWeather warnings for snow and ice have been issued over the weekend, with yellow alerts in force across northern Scotland and north east England until 10:00GMT tomorrow.
At 17:00 GMT, an ice warning covers south-west England, Wales, the Midlands and part of East Anglia until 10:00 tomorrow, and a yellow ice warning has been issued for parts of Northern Ireland from 20:00 GMT, also until 10:00 tomorrow.
This morning parts of Scotland and northern England woke to snow. Our BBC Weather Watchers have been sharing their images.
Rain and hill snow is now moving south across central England and Wales, but will clear southwards through the evening. Expect a cold, clear night for most places, with a widespread frost developing and the risk of some icy stretches.
But it’s not been miserable for everyone. After 21 “terrible days”, some Aberdeen residents took the chance to take a sunny stroll along the beach. One local “absolutely delighted" by the return of the sun said it had "been a long time coming".
The Met Office says Saturday will be "a sunny but cold Valentine's Day for many" but as BBC Weather forecasts, don't expect it to last.
