Glasgow has woken up to its first snowfall of the year this morning.
The city has faced increasingly bitter temperatures in recent days after a mild December.
A weather warning by the Met Office for snow and ice has been in place for several days and remains in place for the duration of the morning until noon today.
Today's temperature will be around 3C with the forecast predicting: "Sunny intervals and further wintry showers. Still some heavier showers this morning then the showers dying away later this afternoon. A cold day with fresh westerly winds. Maximum temperature 5 °C."
Meanwhile, the snowfall is already causing issues for those travelling this morning, with a number of roads affected, leading to delays.
Routes on the M8, M80 are both experiencing significant congestion, with a 30mph limit in place on the M8.
The Met Office warning reads: "Frequent sleet, hail and snow showers may lead to some disruption to travel during Thursday night and Friday morning."
It continues: "Frequent wintry showers arriving from the west during Thursday evening and overnight are likely to lead to a fresh covering of snow for areas above 100-200m (mainly 2-5 cm, but locally 5-10 cm above 200 m and as much as 15 cm over the highest ground where showers are most frequent).
"Falling snow below this level may cause some temporary slushy accumulations which then may freeze and cause icy patches where skies remain clear for long enough. Winds will be gusty around heavier showers and there is also a risk of lightning strikes from isolated thunderstorms in some coastal districts."
