After heavy snowfall throughout the night, many of you will be waking up under a blanket of snow.

Snow and sub-zero temperatures have been gripping the area, and most of the country, from the past few days as the 'Beast from the East' storm takes affect.

A yellow weather warning is currently in place by the Met Office.

The yellow warning indicates that severe weather is possible across the next few days and could impact the area and residents.

Specifically, yellow means that people should plan ahead and think about their travel arrangements.

The Met Office monitors weather situations as they develop and residents are advised to keep an eye on future forecasts and be aware that the weather might change or worsen.

Make sure you know whether your child's school is open by checking our full list of closures in Burton, East Staffordshire and South Derbyshire below.

Gritters out in force in Staffordshire

The county’s gritting teams continued their constant operations across the road network with increasingly hazardous driving conditions this morning.

Helen Fisher, cabinet support member for highways and transport said: “These are especially difficult conditions and we expect they will get worse later with more snow expected.

“Our gritting crews are in constant operation making every effort to clear the roads and will continue through today and into tonight.

“We’d again urge people to drive with caution due to the snow, ice and freezing temperatures and to be well prepared if they do need to travel. We’d also ask people to look out for friends or neighbours if older or more vulnerable through this period of exceptionally cold weather.”
