The UK was greeted with a fresh blanket of snow on Tuesday, causing schools to close once again. The Met Office issued four yellow weather alerts for areas in Scotland, Northern Ireland, and England, warning of dangerous conditions. As a result, many schools are considering shutting down for the day, including those in Cornwall which have already closed due to heavy snowfall.

Parents are advised to check online to see if their child's school has reopened today. Many schools have announced closures, including Callington Community College, South Petherwin CP School, Tregadillett Primary School, and Willand School in Cornwall, along with several schools in Aberdeenshire such as Aberchirder Primary School, Anna Ritchie School, and Cairney School.

The list continues with schools like Crudie School, Drumblade School, Fintry School, and Fordyce School in Aberdeenshire, and Forgue School, Fyvie School, Glass School, and Gordon Primary School. Even the Gordon Schools and King Edward School in Aberdeenshire have closed, along with Largue School, Monquhitter School, Ordiquhill School, and Rayne North School. In addition, Rhynie School, Rothienorman School, St. Andrew's School, Strathdon School, Towie School, Turriff Academy, Turriff Primary School, and Udny Green School have all shut their doors.

Meanwhile, snow has been reported in the Yorkshire Dales and Mansfield, Nottinghamshire has been blanketed in snow this morning. Age UK has issued a warning, reminding people to be cautious of the dangerous conditions, especially for vulnerable individuals like the elderly. Dr. Agostinho Sousa from the UKHSA urges everyone to check in on their loved ones and neighbors, especially those who are at an increased risk, to ensure they are well-prepared for the cold weather ahead.
