Big Freeze Continues in Dorset
The freezing weather's continuing in Dorset - many minor roads are icy after Friday's snow and the Met Office has issued a yellow warning for ice today.
It caused lots of transport disruption last week, but the situation's improved and all the major roads have been treated.
South West Trains are mostly back to normal - Find out more details here.
Bournemouth Airport says it's open as normal, so is Southampton.

If you have to drive, the advice from the police is:-
* Ensure the vehicle is roadworthy for the conditions – check tyres, windscreen washers and wipers, lights, petrol and oil levels and that the heater works..
* Make sure that any snow or ice is cleared from the windscreen and other windows of the vehicle before driving and carry warm clothing, a blanket and a flask containing a hot drink incase your vehicle breaks down or you become stranded.
