THE Met Office has warned of a subzero cold snap hitting Scotland with possible snowfall in February.
It comes after Storm Isha and Jocelyn battered the UK, with one man in Scotland dying after his car collided with a fallen tree.
Met Office spokesman Stephen Dixon said that Arctic air is set to migrate to the UK.

He said: "Signals point to the chance of a cold spell and snow in mid and late February in the North".
"The UK is transitioning to some more typical winter weather over the coming days, though areas further north and west will see some periods of wet weather over the weekend," he added.
According to weather forecasters WXCharts, meanwhile, snow has been predicted on Tuesday (January 30) across central and northern Scotland.
Temperatures are also expected to dip to subzero temperatures, particularly in the northern parts of the country.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
