After relentless wet and gloomy conditions, wintry weather is set to return to parts of the UK with snow and ice in the forecast for many.
Arctic air will accompany the change in conditions, dropping temperatures as many as six degrees below average.
The Met Office has issued yellow warnings for snow and ice across Scotland and northern England from 16:00 GMT Thursday to 12:00 Friday.
Rain will fall as snow initially over higher ground before reaching to lower levels through Thursday night.
Settling snow will mostly be seen above 200m with as much as 10cm possible.
The rain and snow are expected to clear south during the early hours of Friday, though temperatures will fall quickly to around 3 to 6C below the average.
This will lead to ice on untreated surfaces and dangerous road conditions in some places.
