Scots are bracing themselves to be blanketed with snow over the course of the weekend.
Much of the north of the country is set to be battered with the white stuff on Saturday and Sunday.
The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for snow in the north of Scotland.
The alert will run from 5pm today until 3pm on Sunday, February 5.
Weather bosses warn heavy snow showers may lead to some travel disruption, especially over high routes.
Scots have been told to expect some roads and railways to be affected - with longer journey times by road, bus and train services.
Some parts of the Scottish Highlands could see snowfall as deep as 36cm on Sunday afternoon while temperatures could be as low as -9C.
The worst of the snowfall is expected for the north and north west parts of Scotland.
Meanwhile, the central belt is expected to see only a few cm of snow.
A Met Office spokesperson said: "Frequent and occasionally heavy snow showers are expected on Saturday night and Sunday, and combined with strong westerly winds will lead to blizzard conditions and drifting snow on higher routes across Highland.
"Accumulations of 2 to 5 cm are possible in places, with 10 to 15 cm accumulating on routes above 300 metres.
"Icy patches will be an additional hazard, more especially across western coastal areas."
