YORK is enduring one more bitterly cold day tomorrow - with the additional possibility of freezing rain this afternoon - before a dramatic change in the weather arrives.

BBC Weather in association with MeteoGroup says temperatures will rise to 12C tomorrow and could soar as high as 16C by next Saturday as mild air is blown towards the UK from the south-west.

A yellow warning has been issued by the Met Office for York and North Yorkshire today as rain arrives, which may fall as freezing rain and cause treacherously dangerous icy surfaces on roads.

But temperatures are likely to remain in the teens for most of the coming week before peaking next weekend.
