Some 15 areas in Scotland are set to be thrashed with snow, with up to 10cm potentially laying this morning amid the Met Office "risk to life" warning.
Forecasters have warned that disruption could be likely, with power cuts, travel delays and road closures due to heavy snow. Drivers are being urged to take extreme care if choosing to travel.
The warning - which was set in place overnight - will last until 12PM today and covers much of Scotland's Central Belt. There is also a yellow warning for snow and ice covering a much wider area, valid until 9pm this evening.

The separate yellow warning will stay in place until 9PM, meaning that there will be a "fair chance of some travel delays on roads" and "a small chance that power cuts will occur".
