If you were trying to travel early this morning, today has likely been a day of disruption after heavy snowfall hit much of the UK overnight.

The icy front was particularly heavy in the north, where major airports were forced to shut their runways, and a severe weather alert has been in place on roads for much of the day.

As the day went on, infrastructure began to fare a little better, with Manchester and Liverpool John Lennon Airport both reopening their runways after early morning closures. They warn passengers may still experience delays.

And, some were even able to embrace the wintry conditions – we’ve thoroughly enjoyed living vicariously through your sledding videos and dog pictures from here in the BBC basement.

But, as snowfall becomes rain and snow on the ground begins to melt, flood warnings are cropping up, external in the south of the UK – 23 are currently in place alongside a further 226 flood alerts.

This has already caused delays on the railways, where flooded tracks are forcing trains to go slower.

The snow and frost isn’t completely gone though – five snow and ice warnings will still be in place across the north of England, Scotland and Northern Ireland in the morning, where residents should expect an icy start.

We’re about to wrap up our live coverage for the evening, but for more on what to expect into the night and tomorrow, you can get the latest updates here.

Thanks for joining us – keep warm and dry.
