The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for thick fog this morning after temperatures plummeted to -7C overnight.
It warns of areas of freezing, dense fog which will affect parts of Suffolk including Stowmarket, Ipswich, Haverhill and Mildenhall.
Drivers are being urged to take care on the roads while the warning is in place until 11am this morning (December 11).
It comes after parts of the county experienced sub-zero temperatures again last night (December 10), with -7C in Santon Downham and -6C recorded in Brooms Barn and Charsfield.

In a Tweet, he added: "Fairly extensive low cloud and freezing fog in many areas this morning, and it could linger all day in some places."
Earlier this week the UK Health and Security Agency and the Met Office also issued warnings for severe cold weather.
The cold snap is expected to last for several days into next week, with temperatures struggling to get above freezing, according to the Met Office.
