Hour by hour forecast as weather warning for ice and snow remain in place for Leeds
Leeds is waking up to a chilly start today with the Met Office issuing warnings for snow and ice.
The yellow weather warning is in place until 3pm today with forecasters warning snow and ice could lead to disruption across West Yorkshire.
A further weather warning has been issued for tomorrow, Sunday, from 2am until 3pm with a warning of spell of snow will lead to some disruption.
It comes as warnings for snow and ice are in force across much of the UK as tens of thousands of people are still without power after Storm Goretti.
Yellow warnings for snow and ice continue until Sunday and rail disruption may be seen through the weekend across England, Wales and Scotland, National Rail said.
About 28,000 properties were without power in the South West at 6am on Saturday, according to the National Grid’s website, along with close to 1,700 in the West Midlands and about 150 in the East Midlands, while all power has been restored in Wales.
Downing Street said support was being offered to homes left without power.
Forecasters warned that the combination of melting snow and rain will increase the flood risk for some in the coming days.

What else has the Met Office said?
Dan Stroud, Met Office meteorologist, said the weather over the weekend will remain “unsettled and cold”.
He said: “Wintry showers will continue to affect some coastal areas on Saturday, although these will increasingly become confined to northern and eastern parts as the day progresses.
“Elsewhere, after a cold and frosty start, it should be a mostly dry day with variable amounts of cloud. It will be a widely cold day, with frost lingering across parts of the country.
“Sunday will start dry in the east, but cloud and rain already present in the west will move steadily eastwards.
“The rain will fall as snow inland across the north Midlands and areas further north. However, temperatures will rise through the day, meaning the snow will become increasingly confined to higher ground by the afternoon.
“It will be windy for all, with coastal gales and the potential for severe gales in the north west later in the day.
“The unsettled but increasingly milder theme continues into next week, with persistent rain at times in northern and western areas, along with strong to gale force winds. However, it will feel much milder than recently, with temperatures returning to near-normal values.”
