Weather warnings are still in place in large parts of the UK, amid concern that icy conditions could cause travel delays and "cut off" some rural areas.

The Met Office said snow showers would continue to affect parts of Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales, northern England and parts of the Midlands.

A few centimetres of snow is likely but up to 20cm is possible in some areas.

There are yellow "be aware" warnings for parts of the country, with an amber "be prepared" alert in place on Sunday.

The Midlands, Wales, northern and eastern England and the far north of Scotland are most likely to have heavy snow early on Sunday morning.

According to BBC Weather, a 10cm spread of snow will initially mount in the Midlands and eastern England, before gradually becoming lighter and patchier throughout the day and into Sunday evening.

Birmingham Airport have warned passengers travelling on Sunday morning to allow more time for their journey as a result.

Meanwhile southern parts of England and Wales could face heavy rain and gale force winds of up to 70mph (112km/h), the Met Office said. Icy surfaces are likely to be an "additional hazard", it added.

Highways England have urged drivers to "prepare for every eventuality", recommending they carry warm clothing, food, drink, required medication, boots, a shovel and a torch.

Temperatures are likely to reach lows of -10C (14F) in some parts of Scotland and Wales, particularly in rural areas.

The heaviest and most frequent snow showers are forecast to affect mainly north east Scotland.

On Sunday "there is a good chance that some rural communities could become cut off", the Met Office said.

Only a small proportion of power cuts affecting homes and businesses across the Midlands, south west England and south Wales are related to the weather, Western Power Distribution said.

All current outages are set to be restored by 23:00 GMT on Saturday, ahead of further possible power cuts on Sunday due to the expected snowfall.

Meanwhile in Scotland, where 18,000 households had been without power, electricity supplies have been restored.
