Updated: 5.15pm: THERE will be outbreaks of snow in Derbyshire throughout Saturday night and Sunday morning.
A Met Office spokesman said: "Through the night we will see outbreaks of snow through the area for a lot of the night, but it will be lighter and patchier as the night goes on."
He said that temperatures would be about -2C, but could reach -4C.
He added: "The strong easterly winds will be continuing through the night so there will be a problem with drifting snow in the area."
Outbreaks of snow are forecasted for Sunday morning but it should be dry by the afternoon.
The spokesman said: "Sunday will be very cold. Temperatures will be about 1C or 2C, but with the strength of the winds it will feel below freezing for the whole day."

"The vulnerable people in our society are being taken care of by well-practiced adverse-weather procedures in consultation with the emergency and partnership services.
"For those that are not vulnerable, there's an expectation that a degree of personal responsibility is taken, such as decisions as to whether to travel or not, so that we can focus our efforts on those that truly do need our help."
