SCOTLAND recorded both the hottest and coldest temperatures in the UK on the same day.
Temperatures soared to 25.5C in Aviemore and Kinlochewe on Wednesday, yet some parts of Scotland also recorded below freezing temperatures overnight.

It comes after Scotland has seen a spell of good weather over the last few days, with temperatures forecast to drop back down to around 14C over the weekend.
