Chilly weather will be widespread across the United Kingdom on Saturday, as millions gather for Guy Fawkes Night events.
Temperatures will drop to their lowest points since April across much of the U.K. on Saturday night, with lows ranging from minus 1 to 3 degrees Celsius (30-37 F). Along the coast, lows will generally average around 4 C (40 F).

Normal low temperatures for this time of year range from 3-6 C (37-43 F).
Anyone headed outdoors will want to wrap up as a gusty north wind makes the air feel even colder, AccuWeather Meteorologist Eric Leister said.
Though winter coats will be needed, most people can leave their brollies at home.

Showers will dampen areas near the coast, but inland locations will remain mainly dry.
"Those in coastal locations will have the most difficult time viewing and setting off fireworks as clouds will be around throughout the evening, along with a few showers," AccuWeather Meteorologist Tyler Roys said.
An odd shower threatens to lightly dampen the River of Light festival along the River Mersey in Liverpool, England.

Celebrations are set to begin at 4 p.m. and include an aerial display by the Twister Aerobatic Team, street entertainers and a pyrotechnic display.
Meanwhile, partly cloudy to clear skies will allow fireworks to go off without a hitch at Manchester's Heaton Park, Alexandra Palace in London, and during Sparks in the Park, the biggest firework display in Wales.
