Snow is expected to carpet parts of Sussex tomorrow as the big freeze takes hold.

The Met Office today issued a severe weather warning, with up to 3in of snow expected to settle in parts of Sussex by Sunday lunchtime.

Dipping temperatures, biting winds, snow and hail has already made for one of the dreariest Easter weekends on record.

Forecasters now say there is a 60 per cent risk of "a severe event" affecting Brighton and Hove and West Sussex, with East Sussex less likely to be affected.

Disruption to transport networks has been predicted and local sporting programmes are expected to be decimated.
