Snow hits London as commuters battle through the elements and temperatures plummet

Commuters were forced to battle through snow on their way home this evening as temperatures plunged across London.

The Met Office issued a yellow weather warning for ice overnight into tomorrow morning as snow hit the capital.

Temperatures dropped as low as 0.7C but could be set to hit -2C tomorrow.

Commuters fought through the white stuff as heavy snow fell on London.
