AS MUCH as nine inches of snow has fallen and settled overnight in parts of south Bucks.

Stokenchurch appears to have had the most snow fall, with about nine inches, while Downley has been hit particularly hard, according to reports from readers.

The M40 has been cleared but late last night conditions were extremely hazardous, with reports of over 100 cars abandoned between High Wycombe junction 4 and junction 6.

See link below for live traffic cameras of the M40.

Road safety charity the IAM has today told drivers not to travel unless it is completely necessary and to check the conditions for your entire journey.

Buckinghamshire County Council Leader Martin Tett tweeted this morning: "Clear own snow sensibly and help neighbours esp the elderly or vulnerable."

How bad are the roads where you are? How much snow have you had?
