Ice and freezing temperatures are expected across the UK, as well as more snow - particularly in eastern parts of the country.

BBC Weather predicts "a very slippery start for just about everywhere" on Sunday.

While there could be snow flurries for much of the UK, as much as 8cm (3in) is forecast for south-east and eastern England, then north-east England later.

Wintry weather caused widespread travel problems on Friday and Saturday.

Heathrow Airport will be hit by a third day of cancellations and delays, with a planned 20% reduction to the flight schedule on Sunday because of forecast snow and low visibility.

In other developments:

The Met Office has issued a yellow "be aware" ice warning covering almost the whole of England, all of Wales and Northern Ireland, and the south-west corner of Scotland.

The warning says: "The public should be aware of the risk of localised difficult travel conditions due either to existing snow cover, or to icy surfaces."

There are also yellow snow warnings for eastern parts of England and Scotland, stretching across the Midlands into north Wales.

A band of persistent snow is expected to affect parts of south-east England by 09:00 GMT on Sunday, moving slowly north during the day to reach north-east England overnight and much of eastern Scotland by 06:00 GMT on Monday.

Snowfall is expected to continue for much of eastern Scotland and north-east England on Monday, while there could also be flurries in southern England and Northern Ireland.

Cold weather is anticipated across the UK throughout Sunday, with temperatures at or about freezing in most areas and BBC Weather predicting a possible low of -8C in Dorchester, Dorset, on Sunday night.
