Snow has fallen across parts of the UK, with more forecast over the weekend.

Up to an inch (25mm) of snow settled in parts of northern England and southern Scotland. Temperatures fell early on Saturday to -7C at Shap, in Cumbria.

The Met Office said recent wet weather, which flooded about 800 UK homes, meant "an increased risk of icy patches".

Heavy bursts of rain have been forecast for Sunday and Monday in parts of the UK, with up to 20mm (0.75in) expected in flood-hit south west England.

BBC Weather forecaster Mike Silverstone said: "It could potentially cause more flooding issues there. It's not going to help."He said a band of rain would from western England eastwards late on Sunday going into Monday morning.

The Met Office has issued a low-level warning of severe weather, affecting much of the UK for Saturday morning.

It said: "Due to the recent wet weather there is an increased risk of icy patches, even on roads that have been treated with salt, where water run off/seepage may wash off any earlier salt treatment.

"The public should be aware of the risk of ice on roads and pavements."

Frosty weather is expected to last for the next few days, with more snow predicted in northern England and Scotland on Sunday night.
