Storm Bert has transformed central and southern Scotland, under a blanket of snow. With some travel disruption, some children and dogs have been enjoying the cold weather.

The Met Office has issued weather warnings as Storm Bert arrives in Britain, prompting a slew of yellow and amber weather alerts. Storm Bert, the second storm of the year, is expected to bring heavy snowfall and rain as well as fast winds across the country this weekend.

The Met Office has issued snow, ice, wind and rain warnings across the UK and said the low pressure system would be a 'multi-hazard event' following a cold snap. An amber alert for heavy snow and ice will be in force on Saturday from 7am until 5pm.
