Some snow pictures captured by SuffolkNews readers in Bury St Edmunds and surrounding villages

While building a snowman might have been a challenge, the sudden snowfall certainly made for some great pictures.

The Met Office originally forecast snow over higher ground in Scotland and northern England on Friday and Saturday, but some has also fallen in parts of East Anglia today – including Suffolk.

Snow was spotted in some parts of the county this afternoon, including Bury St Edmunds and the surrounding villages, and our readers have captured glimpses of the wintry scene.

Here are some of the pictures shared with SuffolkNews:

Snowfall is expected to continue this evening until around 11pm.
