It follows a yellow weather warning for snow which runs across northern England for most of today.

No schools are closed.

Met Office spokesman Oli Claydon said: “The worst of the snow will be later on today. Through this morning and this afternoon you’re more likely to see accumulations.

“The snow risk tomorrow is moving much further north, and it will be a bit of a drier day.”

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has activated a cold health alert for the Midlands and north of England, warning of the impacts on health and social care until 8pm this evening.
