SNOW has fallen across Brighton and Hove this morning amid a yellow weather warning.

Residents were greeted by a light shower in parts of Brighton and Hove at around 10 am this morning.

It comes as part of a yellow weather warning for snow and ice that remains in place over the city and the rest of Sussex.

The warning is scheduled to last until 23:59 tonight.

Across the county, some roads and railways are "likely to be affected", with longer journey times by road, bus and train services.

According to the Met Office, it is due to an "area of rain and snow that will linger over southeast England, leading to some icy stretches."

Steve Willington, a chief forecaster for the Met Office said: “The exit of Storm Christoph – which brought the heavy rain to a central band of the UK – has established a flow of colder air from Iceland and the Arctic.

"And this is bringing a mix of wintry hazards across the UK.

“In clearer conditions, overnight ice will remain a hazard, while a band of snow is likely to bring falls of 1-3cm quite widely across central areas of the UK, particularly the Cotswolds and higher ground in the East Midlands on Sunday.

"But snow outside these areas is also a potential hazard.”
