A fresh 24-hour weather warning for ice has been issued for Powys by the Met Office.
The new yellow alert will come into force at midday today (Friday) and is expected to run until midday on Saturday (January 10).
The warning comes as partially thawed snow refreezing, accompanied by freezing fog and a few wintry showers, will bring the risk of ice overnight into Saturday.
The Met Office said: "Partially thawed snow during Friday will likely freeze overnight as temperatures fall below freezing, leading to a widespread ice risk.
"In addition, wintry showers will continue to feed into parts of Wales at times, perhaps also into the West Midlands.
"Whilst there is some uncertainty as to the extent of any precipitation, this falling onto frozen surfaces may also add to the risk of ice.
"Freezing fog patches are also likely in places, posing an additional ice hazard."
A yellow weather warning remains in place until midday after Storm Goretti brought heavy snow leading to disruption and difficult travelling conditions on Thursday evening and Friday morning.
Storm Goretti “continues to cause problems” as a mixture of rain, sleet and snow batters some areas, the Met Office said.
Meteorologist Alex Deakin said the storm will continue to clear throughout Friday, but many still face a “wet, cold, miserable day”.
He said: “Storm Goretti continues to cause problems through Friday morning, particularly across parts of eastern England, where we are seeing a mixture of rain, sleet, and still some snow falling.
“The heavy snow over the West Midlands and Wales has now eased but of course, is still lying on the floor and still causing some disruption.
“Gradually, through the day, the storm will continue to clear away, but it’s going to still be a wet, cold miserable day across much of eastern England, and still icy across parts of northern Britain as well.”
