A severe cold snap is set to bring travel carnage to the UK this weekend as an icy front is bringing blizzards to Scotland and gusts as high as 80mph in northern England.
Scotland is due snow from today before northern England, East Anglia and Wales will be hit with similar conditions as the week progresses.
The Met Office have issued yellow weather warning for both Friday and Saturday.
Harsh gusts as high as 50-60mph across the UK could cause significant travel issues and power outages on Saturday.
The Met Office has warned the intense winds could force roads and bridges to shut and could see roof tiles blown off houses.
It went on: 'Gusts seem likely to reach 50 to 60 mph widely, with 70 to 80 mph possible in coastal locations, particularly in parts of Scotland and north-east England.'
The Met Office said: 'there is a slight chance of some damage to buildings, such as tiles blown from roofs' and 'there is a small chance that some roads and bridges could close'.
