A blanket of snow covered Tayside and Fife on Friday.

The pre-Christmas wintry blast across Dundee, Angus, Perthshire and Fife saw several roads left impassable or closed.

A number of schools in Perthshire and Fife were also shut and there was disruption to public transport.

The snowfall appeared to affect almost every part of the region, with more forecast over the weekend.

Our photographers and reporters were out to capture the best images.
