More snow is on the way this week – but the baltic temperatures will begin to ease.
Temperatures have plummeted to as low as -20C in Carrbridge and -17C in Corgarff and Strathdon this week.
Heavy snow has also hit, with Shetland particularly badly affected today – with thousands of home without power and schools across the island shut.
A yellow weather warning is in place until noon on Friday with more snow and ice expected, but there will be some let-up in the temperatures.
Aviemore is expected to drop to -5C tonight while Ballater and Inverness is likely to hit -3C.
Temperatures in Aberdeen and Elgin are expected to sit at around -1C and 0.
