Snow joke... Inverness was covered in snowfall last week

Forecasters have predicted both ice and “significant” snowfall for higher ground.

Inverness has already seen snow last week with multiple snow and ice warnings now in place for large areas of the country right through to Thursday night as falling rain is expected to freeze on impact.

The alerts began last night ahead of what will be the coldest spell in the season so far.
