This fox in Sheffield was getting ready for another chilly night
We’re going to wrap up our live coverage as the UK settles in for another freezing night of wintry weather.
The cold weather comes after another day of flooding causing havoc in central England but, with no further rainfall expected in flood-hit areas in the coming days, flood waters are likely to begin subsiding.
Travel disruption continued today, with flights delayed, roads closed and railways impacted by the poor weather.
People continued to grapple with the impact of the severe flooding that has affected homes and businesses across the Midlands in England and a man had to be rescued from a flooded caravan park in Leicestershire’s Barrow upon Soar.
There were 114 flood warnings, meaning flooding is expected, and 205 flood alerts, meaning flooding is possible, in place across England on Tuesday afternoon. One flood warning and six flood alerts were active in Wales.
Looking ahead, forecasters predict the coldest nights of the year so far on Wednesday and Thursday, and temperatures are expected to fall as low as -20 C in some areas.
A series of yellow weather warnings covering the next few days have already become active – with the latest warning of the danger of ice in parts of northern Wales, as well as areas in central and northern England, until 12:00 GMT on Wednesday.
