She penned: “No significant rain in the forecast for the rest of this week. My poor plants are growing like the triffids in my kitchen… don’t want to put them out due to the frost (tempting as it is in the Spring sunshine!) @BBCBreakfast.”

Delivering today’s forecast, Carol explained: “It is a cold start. There’s a widespread frost, some of us have higher temperatures than others at the moment.
“In Aberdeenshire, it’s -3C, Birmingham -1C so if you’re just heading out it is a nippy start to the day.
“But most of us will have sunshine today and it is also going to be mostly dry.”
She continued: “The highest temperatures today will be about 16C, maybe 18C out towards the west.
