Snow has fallen across parts of northern England and southern Scotland, with more forecast over the weekend.
Up to an inch (25mm) of snow settled in some areas. Temperatures fell early on Saturday to -7C at Shap, in Cumbria.
Meanwhile, two of Scotland's five ski resorts have opened for business this weekend because there is enough snow cover to get the season under way.
The Met Office said recent wet weather, which flooded about 800 UK homes, meant "an increased risk of icy patches".
Heavy bursts of rain have been forecast for Sunday and Monday in parts of the UK, with up to 20mm (0.75in) expected in flood-hit south west England.
BBC Weather forecaster Mike Silverstone said: "It could potentially cause more flooding issues there. It's not going to help."
He said a band of rain would move from western England eastwards late on Sunday going into Monday morning.

Nearly 70 flood warnings are still in place after heavy rain and winds battered parts of Britain earlier in the week.
Three people died in the storms.
And hundreds of households are continuing the clean-up process in the aftermath of flooding, which hit parts of England and Wales.
As cold weather approaches, BBC Weather said there was a yellow warning of ice across the UK, which meant there was an "increased risk of icy patches".
The Met Office has issued a low-level warning of severe weather, affecting much of the UK for Saturday morning.
It said: "Due to the recent wet weather there is an increased risk of icy patches, even on roads that have been treated with salt, where water run off/seepage may wash off any earlier salt treatment.

Scotland's snow sports areas are hoping for an early season boost
"The public should be aware of the risk of ice on roads and pavements."
Frosty weather is expected to last for the next few days, with more snow predicted in northern England and Scotland on Sunday night.
Meanwhile, the snowsports centres at Cairngorm and the Lecht said there was enough snow cover to get the season under way.
There was around 76mm (3in) of fresh snow at CairnGorm Mountain overnight. Operators have invested in four new snow cannons in order to open their higher runs.
The Cairngorms range has had snowfalls since October.
Sportscotland Avalanche Information Service (SAIS) has reported snow covering summits in the range. It has also reported on the summit of Creag Meagaidh.
