Reports from Barton have suggested the snow is coming down quite heavy, but it has only settled a bit.
Barton Town Mayor Councillor Paul Vickers, snow warden for Barton-Upon-Humber, said: "We are responsible for three of the town council salt bins provided by North Lincolnshire Council.
"We filled the salt bins up over the weekend, in preparation for the snow.
"Now it depends on how bad the snow gets.
"The next stage would be to bring in an emergency plan."
