Snow and ice continue to bring travel disruption

Heavy snow and ice is expected to cause disruption across Scotland over the weekend.

A yellow warning for snow in Shetland is in place until 18:00 while a yellow alert for icy conditions in the Highlands is due to come in to force from 16:00 on Saturday until 10:00 on Sunday.

There is a further warning for heavy snow for central and southern Scotland from midnight on Sunday to 06:00 on Monday.

The Met Office said the greatest risk would be in southern and eastern Scotland where up to 5cm could routinely accumulate, increasing to between 10 to 20cm over high ground.

Rain or sleet is more likely near some northern and eastern coasts.

The forecaster said the conditions could lead to power cuts and travel delays.
