Snow has fallen across Norfolk this afternoon ahead of a new weather warning from the Met Office.
People across the county have captured photos of the wintry scenes with more snow forecast for the coming days.
It comes amid a new weather warning from the Met Office for ice which is in place across Norfolk from 4pm this afternoon until 10am tomorrow.
With temperatures set to drop to -2C, the forecaster warned that icy patches are expected to develop on untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths - with a few sleet and snow showers also likely.
The alert comes after a previous weather warning for both snow and ice was issued across the county from 6pm yesterday to 12pm today.
A northerly airflow is continuing to subdue temperatures, with sub-zero figures likely for many over the next few nights and low single figures in the day for many.
Alice Simpson, a spokeswoman for RAC Breakdown, has urged drivers to be prepared for the freezing conditions.
"The first taste of winter means drivers are suddenly contending with some of the worst road conditions we’ve seen all year," she said.
“Drivers should ensure their tyres have plenty of tread and are inflated to the correct pressure to give them the best possible grip on the road.
A cold but bright afternoon with plenty of sunny spells for most ☀️

"It’s best to stick to major roads, rather than rural areas where surfaces may not be gritted, reduce speeds and leave plenty of space behind the vehicle in front to ensure you have more time to stop.
"Everyone should travel prepared in case they find themselves broken down at the side of the road: a blanket, warm waterproof coat and gloves, sturdy footwear and a charging cable and mobile power bank are all essentials.”
