The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for snow and ice in South Tyneside. This comes as the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has also issued a level 3 cold weather alert for all regions of England.

The cold snap which has left large parts of the UK experiencing heavy snowfall comes after the fifth mildest February on record and the driest for 30 years. Some parts of the UK saw temperatures of around 12C last month
