Good afternoon from The Press

OK, we know it is cold out there in York today.

But at least it isn't currently snowing.

One of our top stories today has pictures and video revealing just how bad things are elsewhere in North Yorkshire.

And motorists were being urged to delay their journeys on coastal routes this morning (Wednesday) due to heavy snow and ice. Karen Darley reports.
