The Met Office has issued a weather warning for snow and ice for areas including Norfolk.

The yellow warning, covering much of the East of England will be active from 5pm on Thursday until 11am on Friday.

It covers the whole county, as well as Wisbech and parts of north Suffolk.

The forecaster said: "Showers, wintry in places, will continue to affect northern and eastern Scotland and eastern England through Thursday evening and overnight into Friday morning.

The weather warning comes into force tomorrow night, lasting into Friday

"These are likely to fall onto frozen surfaces allowing icy patches to form.

"From approximately the Humber northwards, showers will often fall as snow inland, with up to 2cm possible in places, and perhaps as much as 5cm over high ground. Further south, any snow accumulations are more likely to be restricted to higher ground."

Drivers are being urged to be careful in the icy conditions on local roads, while we're being warned to expect possible disruption on public transport.
