Temperatures are set to plummet over the coming days following recent warm weather.
On Saturday, in Liverpool, temperatures of 20°C were recorded, making it warmer here than in Ibiza. However, the Met Office has since said the country will become colder, cloudier and more unsettled, bringing the risk of wintry weather in the middle of the week.
Temperatures during the day will halve from the highs reached last week as a cold front pushes down from the north. By Wednesday in Liverpool, temperatures will be around 7°C to 8°C, which is colder than in the Alps (11°C in Morzine).

Alex Burkill, a Met Office forecaster said: "Wednesday will be the most extreme in terms of wintry weather, as a cold stream of air will start to push southwards bringing unpredictable wet and windy conditions, even snow or sleet.
"It will be markedly colder than what we've just seen, daytime temperatures falling by half, and some areas will even struggle to hit 8C (46.4F), which will signify the biggest change in conditions.
"Overnight into Thursday and Friday, many areas will fall considerably lower than freezing, towards minus 4C (24.8F) and minus 5C (23F)
"It looks like most places will be impacted, parts of northern England, northern Wales and central England are expected to be the worst affected.
"This wintry weather could even push into southern areas of England and Wales, which isn't unusual, it is normal to have colder weather in April, but it's far from the sunny, warm days seen last week."
