Snow and ice swept across the UK as Britain faces days of tough weather.
Parts of Scotland, south-western England, the Midlands, north-western England and Wales were thrown into travel chaos.A yellow warning for snow and ice is in place for many parts of Scotland, sections of Wales and south west England until midday Sunday.
Met Office meteorologist Ellie Wilson said: "It's looking to stay quite chilly through next week with frost overnight and some cold temperatures in the day as well."Through Sunday morning, most wintry showers are going to be focused on northern parts of the UK - so Scotland - and the south west of England," she said.
"There could also possibly be the odd flurry in the south Midlands - the Bristol/Bath area - but anything settling will likely be above 200-300 metres.""There's a chance that temperatures could fluctuate a little bit but we're not expecting them to become much milder than we've seen recently with overnight frost expected until at least next Friday, even into the weekend.
Dr Agostinho Sousa, consultant in public health medicine at UKHSA, said: "Cold weather can have serious consequences for health, and older people and those with heart or lung conditions can be particularly at risk.
