A spokesperson for PCC stated: “There are some extremely hazardous conditions on most roads including the primary network in theses areas with significant snow accumulations in places.

“Wintry showers are causing slushy conditions on the rest of the network. Some of the showers will turn to rain during the day but snow fall is still expected over 200m over the next few hours.

“We also have reports of fallen trees blocking roads compounding the disruption in the east of the County.”
