More snow in Gloucestershire expected

More snow flurries are expected to hit Gloucestershire this weekend as temperatures dip below freezing.

People across the county woke up this morning to a white blanket covering fields and roads.

The scenes will have sparked excitement among many, who will be dashing out to make the most of a weekend of sledging and snowball fights.

However, roads remain in a treacherously slippery condition with motorists advised only to make journeys where absolutely necessary.

County council gritting teams were out overnight attempting to make sure major routes were as safe as possible.

An update on the worst affected roads will be posted on this site later this morning.

Met Office weather experts say there could be light flurries of snow in parts of the county later today with temperatures hovering around the freezing mark.

Overnight it could drop to -3 C and more snow is forecast for tomorrow and Monday.
