The last few days have seen some crisp wintry days and nights with the coldest temperatures of the year so far, but what does the weather have in store for New Year's Eve revellers.
While Cromdale in Moray, Scotland, saw -9.0C in the early hours of December 27, and Cornwall saw the lowest temperatures of the year so far on the following night, things are looking a little warmer.
The weather is set to change with a rise in temperatures and a move to more unsettled weather.
It will be breezy with a small chance rain through the afternoon, however the chance of a touch of drizzle increases through the evening to 40 per cent by midnight.
It will also be cloudy but temperatures look likely to hold up above freezing, reaching nearly 8 degrees C at best.
Through the course of New Year's Day, it will gradually turn wet and windy across the whole of the country - but it should stay mild.
