A171 Scarborough To Whitby CLOSED Due To Snow

Callers report road closed signs and impassable driving conditions near Cloughton this morning.

The Yorkshire Coast is under a Yellow Weather Warning for SNOW with 1-3cm of snow possible, especially on high ground.

This caller to Paddy @ Breakfast told us how bad conditions were just north of Cloughton:

Snow is also now settling at lower levels, including in Scarborough as showers continue along the coast.

The A171 between Whitby and Guisborough is reported to be treacherous in many places with traffic crawling along in difficult conditions.

Overnight, the A169 between Whitby and Pickering has also been closed. Here's the Hole Of Horcum webcam from 8:25am:

This was the scene near Staxton Hill earlier:

The Cloughton to Ravenscar road is seeing extra traffic but cars are struggling on the hills and bends.

We have regular travel updates on air this morning.

You can call 01723 336444 (option 2) to report any issues.

This is the Coast is committed to providing a daily local news service for the Yorkshire Coast. We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.

A small contribution from all our readers would really help support independent journalism for the Yorkshire Coast.
