There is also a risk of icy patches on untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths.
The Met Office said: "Although still mostly rain or sleet at lower levels, snow that has been falling during Saturday evening is now accumulating on some roads in the region, particularly over hills, where 2-4 cm is possible temporarily.
