After the autumn warmth, a touch of frost! Early morning chill for walkers in first taste of winter weather

Updated: 06:03 EST, 8 November 2011




These stunning images may look like another unseasonably warm, autumn morning but a closer look reveals the true picture.

The bright, rising sun casts long shadows in a field as a dog and its owner take a brisk walk - but the grass beneath them glistens with icy frost.

And as a foal grazes in bright sunlight, the grass it is nibbling on is clearly frozen. Chilling out: A lady is seen walking with her dog in the heavy frost in Hebburn, near Newcastle as temperatures in England plunge below zero Frozen roses: The last of the summer blooms are dusted with ice in Knutsford

After the warmest November weekend in five years and while much of Britain basks in relative warmth, these pictures offer a chilling reminder that winter is just around the corner.

Captured on camera yesterday morning in Hebburn, near Newcastle, they show that for some parts of the country, temperatures have plunged below zero.

In Knutsford, Cheshire, the last of the summer roses were pictured covered with a dusting of ice as temperatures dipped.

Temperatures in the west of Scotland yesterday dipped below freezing for the first time this autumn.

Gritters patrolled the roads in Ayrshire and the Central belt on Sunday evening into Monday morning as the mercury plunged below zero.

Early on Monday morning, the coldest place in the west of Scotland was Bishopton, Renfrewshire. By Monday afternoon, temperatures reached seven degrees.

The brief cold snap comes after one of Scotland's warmest ever Septembers.

Glasgow was hotter than Greece at one point in September, reaching a toasty 24 degrees Celsius - well above average for early autumn.

The warm conditions have even been blamed for bad performances on the High Street because shoppers have postponed buying winter clothes as they enjoy the unseasonal weather.

The Met Office forecast for the UK in the coming week hints that more wintry weather with cloud and rain is expected in most areas.

Starting the week with cloud in the southeast spreading to the rest of England and Wales - bringing patchy light rain with it - the forecast predicts that Northwestern areas will fare better and have a sunnier day after the morning fog slowly clears.

Today and Wednesday will be more cloudy and occasionally damp in all areas.

Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday are also likely to see more persistent rain in western areas while, in the east, there will be some brighter spells and generally it will remain mild.

Pictures of a more colourful and warmer autumn could be seen in other parts of the country, however.

Amateur photographer Roger Merrifield captured the glorious colours on display at Ambleside, in the Lake District and, at Buttermere in Cumbria, the awe-inspiring landscape was seen, reflected in the lake.
