Greater Manchester has been warned to expect heavy snow across the region this week as temperatures reach near-freezing levels.
In the latter half of the week, the Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for 'heavy snow' across Greater Manchester. Meteorologists have warned that the heavy snow could cause significant disruption to travel and the operation of public services.
