COLCHESTER avoided the worst of the snow as the UK continues to suffer from freezing temperatures.
Schools across the region are expected to return today after heavy snow and sheet ice forced many to close.
Main roads have been gritted and are currently running smoothly, but many side roads, pavements and footpaths have once again frozen over.
Residents and commuters are advised to travel with caution while temperatures struggle to rise above 1 degree today.
