Suffolk folk will wake up to their first frost of the season this week as temperatures plummet.
The Met Office has forecast that the first widespread frost will reach the county on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, with some locations expected to experience sub-zero temperatures.
On Thursday, November 12, temperatures will drop to around 1C to 3C, with a risk of patchy or light ground frost in rural parts of Suffolk.
It will be even colder across the county on Friday, November 13, with the forecast expected to plunge from 0C down to -3C under clear skies, bringing the coldest air of the week and a widespread frost.
Saturday, November 14, will see lows stay chilly at around -2C to 4C, varying across inland and coastal areas.
Stowmarket and Sudbury are among the areas expected to experience the coldest temperatures, with -1C forecast for the early hours of Saturday morning.
This will likely be the first widespread or noticeable autumn frost of the season for much of inland Suffolk.
While sheltered or rural pockets may have experienced a brief touch of ground frost earlier in autumn, this mid-November northerly airmass marks the arrival of the region's first true cold snap.
