Temperatures are set to drop this weekend, with the first snowfall of the season possible in some parts of the UK.

There is a chance of snow if showers fall over high terrain, with the potential for a few centimetres over the highest ground in Scotland.

Sky weather producer Kirsty McCabe said: "This is the first significant cold snap of the season, but we're not expecting much in the way of snow.

"The biting cold northerly winds are bringing Arctic air, so we'll all feel cold with a significant wind chill, but the showers will be focused on windward coasts and hills.

"Any wintry showers of sleet or snow will tend to be over the mountain tops, above 400 metres or so."

The clocks go back on Sunday, marking the end of the daylight-saving period.

Weather warnings for strong winds and heavy downpours have been removed in some parts of the UK as Storm Benjamin heads eastwards.

Four yellow weather warnings were issued by the forecaster for much of the day on Thursday for wind and rain across southern and eastern England, parts of Wales and Yorkshire.

The Met Office's deputy chief meteorologist Chris Bulmer said: "As Storm Benjamin clears the UK and heads towards Denmark late [on Friday] cold Arctic air will sweep across the country, bringing a noticeably chilly weekend as temperatures fall below average.

"Although many areas will see dry weather with sunny spells, it will feel cold in the brisk northerly winds. Showers are expected in the north and west, some of these falling as snow over Scottish mountains."
