Snow is expected to continue to cause disruption to a large swathe of the UK on Sunday, with the heaviest falls due this morning.
Around five to 10 cm is predicted across central parts of the UK, with 15-20 cm in places.
An amber warning of snow came into force at 4am, affecting Wales, the Midlands and parts of northern and eastern England.
Conditions have caused chaos on Britain’s roads on Sunday, with at least one lorry jackknifing in Staffordshire, and several prangs elsewhere.
Meanwhile Birmingham Airport is closed while workers battle to clear its runway of ice.
But the weather has also made for a more picturesque start of the day, as HuffPost UK readers sent in snaps of the scenes that greeted them this morning.
The Met Office added: “A spell of heavy snow is likely over parts of Wales, the Midlands and parts of Northern and Eastern England on Sunday.
“Road, rail and air travel delays are likely, as well as stranding of vehicles and public transport cancellations.
“There is a good chance that some rural communities could become cut off.”
The forecaster has extended the amber warning towards Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex.
It said that many northern parts of England will see less impact with a yellow warning in force there.
