SNOW and ice was forecast across areas of Gwent in the early hours of Thursday morning.

Although most parts either did not see any snow, or were not as badly hit as expected, some of the more northern areas did see a few inches.

Blaenavon, northern Monmouthshire and Blaenau Gwent were among the areas where you have been out and about snapping snow pictures.
