Wintry conditions are forecast to continue into next week, with snow expected to hit large parts of the country.

The UK Health Security Agency has also issued amber cold weather health alerts for all of England, meaning a rise in deaths is likely - particularly among those aged 65 and over or with health conditions.

A Met Office yellow weather warning for ice has been issued for the north and west of Scotland as temperatures drop across the country. A yellow warning for snow also covers much of the north. The warnings are in place from Thursday afternoon until Friday morning.
