Football matches involving Chelmsford City and Billericay will be played despite the weather, but Brentwood's home tie against Maldon has been called off.

Chelmsford home tie against Maidenhead will be played as will Billericay's away tie to Farmborough.

Braintree's fixture against Alfreton has also been postponed.

The icy weather has caused tricky driving condition on the county's roads but accidents that have happened are not thought to be weather related, Essex Police have said.

At 10am today there have been 12 road traffic collisions reported to police in Essex since midnight and most of those do not appear weather related. However further snow is expected today and conditions may deteriorate so police would advise motorists to only travel if necessary.

Essex Police would also ask motorists if they do intend to make a journey to carry out basic preparations before setting off.

 The forecast summary for the East of England shows further sleet or snow is expected in many places, with drifting possible in the strong east to northeast winds.

Tomorrow, Sunday, there is expected a smattering of further snow flurries.
