Wintry conditions will be slowly easing their grip on most parts of the UK over the weekend, but a return to colder conditions for many is likely in the early part of next week.
Over the next few days Met Office Chief Forecasters anticipate making changes to the pattern of National Severe Weather Warnings.
The low-pressure system – named Storm Larisa by French weather service Météo-France - has moved across a swathe of England and has brought significant snowfall to some parts. Larisa is now gradually pulling away into northern Europe encouraging a feed of colder air and clearer conditions across many areas of the UK by late on Friday. However, these clear skies will bring further wintry hazards with widespread frost and ice occurring with sub-zero temperatures for many.
