00:05After a mild weekend, things are taking a sharp turn.

00:08This week, the UK faces its first widespread frosts, and even snow in some areas.

00:14By Thursday and Friday night, temperatures are set to plummet.

00:17Across the country, lows will hit single digits, and in places like the Pennines, it could drop to freezing.

00:23In the north, places like Cumbria, County Durham, and Northumberland could see minus one degree.

00:28But the real chill is coming to rural Scotland, where the mercury could hit a bone-chilling minus seven or even minus eight degree.

00:36Even cities won't escape it. Towns could dip to just one or two degree overnight.

00:41And yes, it's time to dig out the de-icer. Frost and icy patches are expected from Tuesday morning.

00:47To top it off, rain will sweep in during the day.

00:50And on higher ground in northern England, that rain could turn into snow.

00:54It won't last long, but it's a clear sign. Winter is knocking.

00:57From 16 degree in Devon to freezing conditions overnight, British weather never stays still.

01:03Brace yourself. The chill is here, and it's only just begun.
