Snowfall at Princetown last night by @GoDartmoor

A Met Office yellow weather warning for snow has been issued for parts of our region.

Some snow started to fall last night on higher ground, and the warning remains in force throughout this morning's rush hour.

The alerts include for parts of Somerset including the BANES area, North Somerset, South Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and the Cotswolds in Gloucestershire.

Drivers are being urged to take extra care on the roads -  as there's also a Met office yellow weather alert for rain in force.
