This comes as temperatures are expected to plummet that week.

On Sunday it is forecasted that Edinburgh will drop to 0°C that night and then to -1°C on Monday and Tuesday while only hitting 5°C at the highest.

The Met Office also warn of wintry showers hitting the north of the UK as the unsettled weather that we've been experiencing continues.

Along with strong winds, the Met Office forecast the outlook from Saturday February 5 to 14.

They say: "A north/south divide is expected to continue through the rest of the period with settled conditions and milder temperatures prevailing in the south, whilst unsettled and wetter conditions with strong winds are seen across northern regions, especially the northwest, with near average temperatures.

"Some, mostly short-lived, spells of colder temperatures are likely in the north and northwest, where some wintry showers could develop."
