"Showers may be heavy at times which could lead to some accumulations in places, especially areas with elevation or where showers merge to give longer spells of snow."

The advisory adds: "Ice may also be an additional hazard as nighttime temperatures are expected to drop to below freezing later Saturday and into the new week.

"The public should be aware of Ice and possible lying snow in places, especially but not exclusively on high level routes. Which may cause some difficult driving conditions."
