Scots are bracing themselves for blizzard conditions as some spots could face up to eight inches of snow across Thursday and Friday amid two weather warnings - and with another issued for the weekend.
The Met Office has issued a fresh alert this morning for snow and ice. The alert will come into place at 5pm today, affecting much of the east coast as well as northern and northeastern areas.
A downpour of flurries have hit the country in a spate of wintry weather this week - and experts warn there's more to come. A separate snow warning in southern Scotland is in effect as of 3am Thursday and lasts until 2pm Friday.
