Nottinghamshire could be set for some 'colder interludes' in the next month amid reports of Arctic air coming to the UK.
Temperatures dropped last night and large parts of the county woke up to frosty and icy conditions.
Some areas of the country experienced their coldest winter night so far, and according to Clare Fraser, a Met Office forecaster, we could be in for even colder times ahead.
She told The Sun: "There will be Arctic air streaming down from the north delivering snow showers, particularly in the far north-east of the country.”
The outlook for Nottinghamshire looks less certain in the coming days, with Saturday night, January 22, being 'generally cloudy and frost free' with a minimum temperature of 0C.
For Sunday, the Met Office is predicting a 'predominantly dry and cloudy day, with light winds' and a possibility of sunny intervals.
On the outlook for Monday to Wednesday, the Met Office said: "Dry and mostly cloudy Monday and Tuesday, with perhaps some frost and patches of fog overnight if cloud breaks develop. Wednesday becoming breezy with sunny spells possible for eastern areas."
Here is the longer range forecast for the Met Office:
Wednesday, January 26 - Friday, February 4
A largely cloudy start to this period, with perhaps some isolated fog forming under clear skies in the south, otherwise largely dry and fine here.
A risk of some patchy rain in the far west, however, likely to be brighter in the east.
A band of rain arrives later into the northwest, accompanied by some stronger winds, tracking southeastwards, with blustery showers following into the northwest, before returning settled by the end of the week.
Temperatures likely to be close to average in the south, whereas milder in the north. Settled conditions looking to continue to dominate through the remainder of January, however, rain or showers at times for the north and northwest, with occasional strong winds here.
Heading into February there is an increasing likelihood of more unsettled conditions.
Saturday, February 5 - Saturday, February 19
Early February is likely to see a continuation of a north/south split with more settled and cloudy weather expected in the south, and generally drier than average, while the north will be more changeable, milder, with some spells of rain.
There is an increased likelihood of more unsettled conditions becoming established, with the northwest likely to be the wettest area, but showers or longer spells of rain may spread to most areas at times, with the southeast likely to be the driest.
Spells of strong winds are likely to develop more widely at times. Temperatures likely to be near or slightly above average although short lived colder interludes are possible. Any snow likely to be restricted to high ground in the north.
