SALISBURY has seen some snow over the past 24 hours, and although it's not yet reached Beast from the East proportions, it's enough to have some fun in.

Those lucky enough to have a snow day today have been sledging, having snowball fights and making snowmen at various locations in and around Salisbury.

And it's not all bad for those who still ventured out to work or school - pupils at Leehurst Swan School and Farley Nursery have sent us pictures of their fun in the snow this morning.

If you have pictures from today's snow, send them to us using the link below.

Although forecasts have predicted the snow will start clearing this afternoon, many schools have closed early to avoid trouble with pick-up later today.

Public transport has also been affected, with a number of bus services cancelled.

The annual Alabare Big Sleep, to raise money for the homeless in the city, has also been postponed due to health and safety concerns.
