The whole of Cornwall is on snow watch as a double weather warning goes out.
The Met Office has issued a yellow alert which is in force from 4pm on Friday afternoon through until 10.30am on Saturday morning.
A second warning has also been issued from 3am to 6pm on Sunday, which covers the north and south east of the Duchy, down as far as Bodmin.
Forecasters say snow and ice may cause travel disruption and people are urged to take care on the roads.
What to expect
Probably some icy patches on some untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths, increasing the likelihood of accidents and injuries.
Some roads and railways likely to be affected by snowfall, with longer journey times by car as well as bus and train services
"Showers will continue at times across many areas, these largely of rain and sleet at low levels across southern England and southern Wales and near coasts but will be of sleet and snow elsewhere.
"These will bring a cover of snow in places. 1-3 cm could accumulate at low levels, mostly across Northern Ireland, Scotland and northern England but as much as 5-10 cm of additional snow may accumulate at higher levels of these areas.
"Clear skies between showers will also bring the threat of ice."
