MUCH OF THE US has been covered in a blanket of snow since the weekend as its winter shows no signs of abating.

The east coast, some of central US and, oddly, some southern states have all been hit by the cold weather.

The National Weather Service has also warned that another arctic front, bringing “truly frigid” conditions, is on the way again tonight.

Some places from the Carolinas to the Mid-Atlantic may see some of the coldest weather since the mid-1990s! Numerous record low temperatures are expected.

Schools have had to cancel classes, offices are closed and there is transport chaos… but it has also made for some fun snow days and beautiful photography.

Check out some of these wonderful scenes.
