    North Yorkshire Police said a Jaguar had hit the barrier beneath the camera at about 20:00 GMT.

    North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service said the crash involved two vehicles, but all the occupants were out of their cars when they arrived and one woman was treated for minor injuries.

    Norrhern Rail said there were "multiple weather-related disruptions" across its network and TransPennine said it expected delays on services due to "difficult operating conditions".

    LNER has cancelled several services on the East Coast mainline due to a "shortage of train crews", but has not said if that is due to the weather conditions.

    Grand Central said some of its services had also been impacted.

    East Midlands has made changes to a number of its routes.

    It added that it had also suspended services between Sleaford, Lincolnshire and Peterborough due to heavy snow affecting level crossing equipment.

    The route was once voted Britain's most scenic and runs across the North York Moors National Park.

    Coastliner said suspending the service was due to the extreme weather and road conditions.

    It said its teams have been mobilised to restore supplies "as safely and quickly" as possible.

    However, the company said due to the weather conditions it would only provide "generalised estimates" of times it would be able to restore power.

    Estimates suggest around 5,000 homes are without power in West Yorkshire, 3,700 in South Yorkshire and about 300 in North Yorkshire.

    Mass school closures due to conditions

    Hundreds of thousands of children across Yorkshire will be getting a snow day today.

    Thousands of schools across North, South and West Yorkshire have been forced to close their doors.

    In Bradford, the council website lists just under 200 as closed while in Leeds around 200 have also been shut.

    It's a similar situation in South Yorkshire with many in Barnsley, Sheffield, Rotherham and Doncaster not open for pupils.

    In North Yorkshire, difficult driving conditions and the inability to get staff to the site, as well as pupils, have meant numerous schools have been forced to close.

    To find out which schools near you are closed, check with your local BBC radio station or check with the school's social media channels.
