RESIDENTS across Dorset and the New Forest woke this morning to the first frost of 2020.

As forecasters predicted, temperatures plummeted overnight to deliver the crunch of frosty ground and icy car windscreens.

Low temperatures of around or below 0°C are expected to return on Saturday and Sunday night.

However, the sun should shine during the daytime for the start of the week with settled highs of around 7°C.
