Another blast of freezing weather is set to sweep across the South West next week as temperatures plummet.
The UK has just endured its coldest autumn evening, with the mercury dropping to a brutal -12.6C across Scotland, according to The Mirror, but even more cold weather is heading our way.
The South West is set to see lows of -2°C during the early hours of Wednesday morning (November 26).
According to the Met Office, temperatures will plummet and Bristol will see temperatures drop to 1°C at midnight on Tuesday.
Gloucester, Bath, and Yeovil will drop to 0°C the same night.
Cirencester, Weston-super-Mare, Tiverton, and Totnes will also see lows of 1°C overnight.
Taunton, Exeter, Launceston, Salcombe, and Plymouth will see drop to 2°C.

Some rural areas may also drop below freezing, but the cold will be widespread across the region.
WXCharts data also suggests freezing conditions, with Bristol, Gloucestershire, Somerset, and parts of Devon dropping to -2°C.
There are no current forecasts or warnings for snow or ice, but as the week progresses this may be updated.
As Wednesday progresses, temperatures are expected to increase to highs of 9°C, but there will be little relief from the chilly weather.

Forecasters at the Met Office warn that from November 28 to December 7, unsettled conditions are expected across the UK.
The ling-range weather forecast has warned of heavy rain, with some snow flurries across high ground.
It added that short-spells of drier weather is possible, but temperatures will likely be close to the yearly average.
