Brrr! Britain's certainly been cold over the weekend with snow falling across the country.
But temperatures are set to pick up before Wednesday, with the weather going back to wet and windy.
A spokesperson for the Met Office told The Huffington Post UK it will start getting chilly again by mid-week.

"It wasn't as cold last night, temperatures are already into 11 degrees, maybe 12. But as we go through the course of the week we'll see them tailing off a little bit."
Not too quickly though. "What we will see is a bit of a change as we head into the middle of week onwards," they said.
"At the weekend another band of rain pushing its way through."

By Thursday we could see 5-10cm of snow in some parts of the UK, with the weather across the country turning chilly again by next week.
