Wind warning in Scotland as Storm Bert continues for a third day
The storm brought snow to the central belt on Saturday leading to disruption to public transport and the cancellation of sporting fixtures.
The Queensferry Crossing across the Firth of Forth was closed for the first time since 2021 due to the threat of falling ice on Saturday.
The 1.7 mile (2.7km) M90 motorway crossing was shut for more than 15 hours because of the “highly unusual weather event“.
Across the rest of the UK, travel has been disrupted in many areas as the storm continues to batter the country and 180 flood warnings remain in place.
The most affected routes link London with the west of England and Wales.
Great Western Railway has told passengers not to “attempt travel on any route” and routes going though Stansted Airport and Northampton have also been closed.
South Wales has experienced some of the worst impacts, with Welsh First Minister Eluned Morgan describing the floods there as “absolutely devastating“.
