The Beast from the East has caused massive travel disruption in parts of the United Kingdom.

The wintry weather from Siberia, has seen temperature drop as low as -2C in many parts of the country. It has caused several schools and roads including the A1 to be closed.

But, the Met Office say the worst is yet to come and has issued an amber warning for the north-east of England between 6am on Wednesday and 6pm on Thursday.

Hazardous condition means the highest red severe weather warning for #snow has also been issued across central Scotland.  A red alert means there are threats to lives. Commuters are advised to keep safe and not travel unless necessary.

Are you in the UK, please send us pictures of the snow in your area. For more information, visit @metoffice.
