Incredible snow people appear on Scots bridge as locals make the most of wintry weather

Fun-seeking Scots are making the most of the wintery weather- building igloos and queues of snow people.

With the nation blanketed in the white stuff amid severe weather warnings, there has been disruption and travel chaos or many.

But others have made the most of the downpour, with some creative creations made from the snow.

A queue of snow people were built on a bridge in Aboyne, Aberdeenshire.

The 'snow kids' appear to be looking over the bridge and into the water below after someone went to the effort of creating the five figures from snow.

Other Scots youngsters took a leaf out of Pingu's book and created their own amazing igloos.

Storm Darcy, dubbed by some as The Beast from the East two, has caused chaos and brought inches of snow across Scotland.

Farmers cleared up to nine feet of snow in some parts

A blast of freezing air from Russia and Eastern Europe has spawned Storm Darcy and triggered five days of weather warnings.

The Met Office issued an amber snow warning for parts of Scotland on Saturday as a freezing blast sweeps across the country.

It is expected to be the coldest weather seen across the UK as a whole since the deadly Beast from the East hit in February 2018.

Storm Darcy's strong easterly winds are set to wreak havoc and lead to blizzards, snow drifts and ice forming on exposed power lines and phone masts.

Scots health boards have advised for people to stay home and avoid the risk of injury.

Hospitals are already dealing with the coronavirus pandemic and further pressure on the system is feared.
