SNOW has begun to fall in Bradford this morning.

It was forecasted late last week by the Met Office that the city would experience some light snow this week as the district braced itself for its first cold snap of the year. 

Temperatures were set to plummet, with highs of just 3C expected for Monday and Tuesday.

The forecast predicted snow tomorrow in Bradford but it seems the wintery weather has come a day early.

They added that the snow is beginning to settle on the surface.

Wintery showers have also been spotted in the Saltaire area.
