Emergency weather warnings have been issued by the Met Office for large parts of central and southern England.

Up to 20cm (8in) of snow fell in parts of Scotland and northern England on Tuesday causing travel chaos for millions of people.



Another 40cm (16in) has been forecast in some areas as the freezing weather moves from north to south.



More fell overnight and commuters and parents face a difficult journey to work and school on Wednesday.



The Met Office said Dorset, Hampshire, Oxfordshire, Berkshire and Wiltshire could see "exceptionally heavy" snow.



Hundreds of schools also had to be closed as the UK entered the grip of its longest cold snap for almost 30 years.
They even closed Gatwick airport, jeesh

Take care everyone and drive safely.
