Residents in parts of the North East have woken up to a blanket of snow as Storm Eunice is set to cause further disruption.
Early on Friday morning, local authorities were out in Tow Law, County Durham clearing roads, while residents were clearing their cars as heavy snow continued to fall.
It is the second storm to hit the UK after Storm Dudley battered the region with winds of up to 80mph suspended a number of Metro services and left homes without power.
