The Post Office says there'll be disruption to mail deliveries and collections today because of the bad weather.

Postal staff says its mail plane couldn't leave the Island last night because of the icy weather.

Posted mail hasn't arrived in the UK, and the office says it's waiting to hear if the flight will be able to go today - and will keep customers updated.

Adverse weather conditions have also affected incoming mail to the Island, and the Post Office says it apologises for any inconvenience.
