A Yellow-level snow warning is in place
Hull has seen its first fall of snow ahead of a yellow weather warning for 'significant disruption'.
Previously, a yellow-level alert for snow and ice was in place until Tuesday, March 7 but now that alert will remain in force until today. The Met Office predicts there will be “further disruption” in some places.
However, on top of that, the forecaster has also issued a second warning for heavy snow between 3am on Thursday and 6pm on Friday. During this period, accumulations of 5-10cm of snow are possible at low elevations, with up to 20cm further north.
In its alert for Thursday and Friday, the Met Office said: "Snow could develop quite widely across the warning area on Thursday and Friday as a potentially quite deep area of low pressure moves across the UK."
