Forecasters have warned that temperatures are set to plunge on Easter Monday.
It comes after Britons enjoyed the sunshine on Easter Sunday, with highs of 17C (62.6F) recorded in southern England.
However, temperatures are predicted to drop to just 5C in London on Monday morning.
While sub-zero temperatures can be expected in parts of northern England, with mercury dropping to -7C in some areas of Scotland.
Making the most of the good weather, Britons flocked to parks and public spaces, including Liverpool’s Sefton Park and Stratford-upon-Avon, in Warwickshire on Easter Sunday.
Met Office forecaster Sarah Kent said: “We will see this plunge of much colder conditions coming in.
“It’s Arctic maritime air, which does mean it’s coming from the Arctic.
“So it’s going to be cold for everybody, but also windy too.
“The wind chill is going to be significant.”
Snow warnings are in place for northern Scotland, with as much as 15cm falling in higher areas.
The Met Office’s yellow warnings are in place from 4pm on Sunday until 10am on Tuesday for Scotland, with winds of up to 70mph forecast.
Coastal areas of eastern England, parts of Wales and Northern Ireland could also see snow showers on Easter Monday.
Southern England can expect to see some sunshine and highs of 7C later in the day, but gusts of up to 30mph will make the temperature “feel like” -1C, Ms Kent said.
Parts of the UK saw the mercury reach nearly 24C (75.2F) on Wednesday, a balmy high unlikely to be repeated on Easter Sunday.
Meteorologist Ms Kent said: “Today is a lovely day for an Easter egg hunt in the back garden, whereas tomorrow if you were doing one you’d probably want to wear three jumpers.”
