Parts of Cheshire have woken up to a blanket of snow this morning.
A yellow weather advisory for snow and ice has been issued in some parts of the region.
The Met Office has said that snow and ice today are expected to create potentially difficult driving conditions.
The warning will remain in place until 10 am on Tuesday (December 29).
A spokesperson for the Meteorological Office said: “Rain can turn to snow, which, along with widespread ice, will lead to the possibility of some disruptions to travel and utilities.”
“Some roads and railways are likely to be affected with longer travel times by road, bus and train.
“Some Slip and Fall Injuries on Icy Surfaces
“Probably some patches of ice on some untreated roads, sidewalks and bike lanes.”
