In contrast to the wet and windy weather which played havoc at the start of the week, Britain can expect a wintry spell with some crisp and dry conditions. Higher areas - including the Pennines, the North York Moors and north east Scotland - are likely to be blanketed in white. Temperatures are predicted to drop well below freezing overnight - falling as low as -5C across the country - and are likely to bring widespread frosts and an increased risk of ice.
