Yorkshire snow latest: Traffic and travel updates as snow hits Leeds, Sheffield, York and Bradford

Snow is expected to cause travel disruption across Yorkshire, the Peak District and south Pennines as yellow and amber weather warnings persist.

Widespread snowfall is expected to continue across Yorkshire causing traffic and travel disruptions, school closures and warnings of power cuts.

A number of schools have closed due to “adverse weather" which has been forecasted by the Met Office.

Amber weather warnings for snow have been issued for parts of northern England and North Wales, while a mixture of yellow rain and snow warnings will be in force across the four nations.

The Met Office said an amber warning means travel delays on roads are likely; public transport vehicles and cars could be stranded; power cuts are possible; rail and air travel delays are likely, and rural communities stand a “good chance” of being cut off temporarily.
