WATCH: Video shows heavy snowfall at The Lion Inn on Blakey Ridge

Snow has been falling since the early hours over the hill of the North Yorkshire Moors.

Video and photos show heavy snow at The Lion Inn, situated high in the moors above Kirbymoorside.

The Inn became a national news story in November 2010 when five members of staff and two guests were snowed in for nine days.

At 9am this morning (Feb 13) the North Yorkshire Weather Updates Facebook Page said heavy snow was still falling on Blakey Ridge.

The Met Office says hill snow will be confined to the highest hills for the rest of the day and rain across the region will gradually ease throughout the day.

Conditions will remain cloudy and strong winds are expected.

The maximum temperature is 5°C.

Tonight frost is possible across North Yorkshire, especially on high ground and cloud will thicken from the west after midnight.
