The runway at Bristol Airport has reopened after snow caused it to close for several hours.

About 5cm of snow fell across Bristol on Saturday morning with more reported in rural locations to the south of the city.

The airport closed early on Saturday but was reopened by 8am.

First Bus reported buses were suspended in Bath and Weston-super-Mare but Bristol services were mostly running.

According to the BBC news Karen Baxter, from First Bus, said the conditions in some parts of the region meant they could not run services.

"The snow outside is significant and the roads just aren't passable," she said.

On the motorway, a jack-knifed lorry on the M5 near Weston-super-Mare was causing delays.

Jim Veale, of the Highways Agency, said motorists should be wary of the conditions.

He said: "It's snowing quite heavily, especially to the east of Bristol, but we have the snow ploughs and gritters out.

"We have everything open but do drive carefully."

The Met Office is predicting more snow this afternoon and tomorrow.
