A YELLOW warning has been issued for three days of snow in York and North Yorkshire.
The Met Office warning for snow and ice, which runs from 3pm on Saturday until the end of Monday, says there is a small chance of travel delays on roads with some stranded vehicles and passengers.
There is also a small chance of power cuts, a slight chance of rural communities coubecome cut off and a small chance of untreated pavements and cycle paths becoming impassable.
The weather will be a little milder for the next few days, with 7C expected tomorrow and on Friday.
The temperatures will plunge over the weekend as easterly winds arrive, and unlike previous snowfalls in York, the snow is not likely to melt quickly.
Forecasters currently believe there may be more cold weather throughout much of February.
