Bracknell is bracing itself for 60 hours of severe weather warnings for snow and ice, starting this weekend.
With the borough's recent snow day, many residents will jump at the chance to have some fun in the white stuff.
And just in case you want to miss out on walking in the snow or have somewhere important to be, the exact times have been revealed of when snow is expected to fall in Berkshire.
As of 11pm Saturday, February 6, the weather service has forecast:
- Rain will turn increasingly to snow during Saturday evening, with snow likely to become widespread, occasionally heavy and persistent by Sunday morning.
- "Heavy snow" between 3am and 9am on Sunday, with a 90 per cent chance of precipitation during this time

Today, the Met Office has forecast temperatures of up to 9C with highs of 7C tomorrow.
But freezing conditions are expected to roll in on Saturday night, with temperatures staying between -2C and 1C until Wednesday.
As a result, the entire South East and east coast of Britain has been placed under 60 hours of severe snow and ice warnings by the Met Office.
The alert will come into effect at 11pm tomorrow and remain in place until midnight on Sunday, before being replaced by a fresh 24-hour snow and ice warning in place throughout Monday.
As a result of the freezing conditions forecast, the Met Office has warned people to prepare for the possibility of disruption to travel.

- A small chance of travel delays on roads with some stranded vehicles and passengers, along with delayed or cancelled rail and air travel
