Heavy snowfall has caused travel disruption in parts of northern England.

Yorkshire, Lancashire and Derbyshire have been worst affected, after 2-5cm fell overnight, with 10cm reported on higher ground.

Passengers waiting to depart Manchester Airport have reported being stuck on the runway for hours due to a lack of de-icers.

Leeds Bradford Airport suspended all morning flights but has since reopened.

Manchester Airport reported "minor delays to departing aircraft" - but passengers told the BBC they had been stuck on board outbound flights.

Shirley Hale said her Jet2 flight to Tenerife had been waiting to depart for over four hours.

"We have been told that there are not enough de-icers at the airport," she said.

The airport apologised and said de-icing was the responsibility of airlines and their ground teams.
