Hundreds of schools are closed, with most councils warnings most are likely to be shut across the region because of the adverse weather conditions.

Across West Yorkshire, the police and local councils are warning people to only head out today if it's absolutely necessary and to wait until after 1pm when the roads are expected to be less treacherous.
Most major routes have been gritted, but there are still some issues on the main roads. There have been a number of issues on the M62 as teams work to recover vehicles from the snow.
