Snow could be on its way to Essex this weekend!
According to the Essex Weather Centre, it is likely to be a "slushy mess at the weekend" but beyond that "showers and the potential for heavier snow from low pressure".
A yellow weather warning for snow has been issued by the Met Office for Sunday with temperatures dipping to minus 6 next week.
However, a white Christmas in Essex is looking like a "big ask", although it is set to stay cold.
