Britain is bracing for potentially life-threatening winds, rains and snowfall as a severe storm rolls in from the southwest of England during what already has been one of the country's worst cold snaps in years.

Yellow weather warnings for snow and ice remain in place for parts of the UK, with the north of Scotland braced for further travel disruption. Further snow showers could cause more delays on roads and on public transport throughout Sunday and into Monday.

Watch the Met Office video forecast, as brisk northwesterly winds are forecast to bring wintry showers to the north.
