More wintry weather is on the way this weekend, the Met Office has warned, with temperatures set to plunge as low as -5C

The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for ice which could cause "some injuries from slips and falls" and "possible travel disruption" in eastern areas on Saturday morning.

It follows a frosty start to April across much of the UK on Friday with the mercury dropping to as low as -8C, which was recorded in Tulloch Bridge, Scotland. Met Office meteorologist Dan Stroud said overnight temperatures would be several degrees colder than the average for the time of year, with cities across the UK experiencing below freezing conditions.

UK weather: Winter's last gasp brings warnings for parts of UKJust a week after temperatures approached 20C (68F), much of the country feels as if it has been thrown back into winter. On the day energy prices rise, we need to turn up the heating because it's freezing. And a large chunk of that rise is 'green' taxes, to pay for global warming. We pay because it's too hot. We pay because it's too cold. It's all a bit Goldilocks if you ask me. Yup, PRICE RISES right when the cold weather is coming back.....how fucking convenient...Scamming bastards
