Forecasters are predicting heavy snow to fall across parts of Britain in the coming days, prompting a warning about travel disruption.
Wintry showers are forecast for England's North, Scotland and Northern Ireland on Wednesday and Thursday.
Up to 5cm of snow is expected in low-lying areas and forecasters say higher ground could see in excess of 10cm.
The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for people to be aware of possible travel disruption.
Strong gusty winds are also expected and visibility may be reduced.

A statement by the Met Office's chief forecaster read: "An active cold front is expected to push south-east across the UK during Wednesday introducing an increasingly cold and unstable air mass.
"Showers will become frequent and heavy, increasingly falling as snow in the north and west, and driven well inland by strong to gale force north-westerly winds.
"Accumulating snow is likely, especially overnight."
Paul Knightley, UK forecast manager at weather services company MeteoGroup, said strong winds will bring colder air.
"Accompanying this fresh to strong wind will be numerous wintry showers, falling as hail, sleet and snow.
"Although these are possible almost anywhere from Wednesday afternoon onwards, the higher ground of western and northern Britain and Northern Ireland is most likely to see significant snowfall."
Last week, snow and freezing conditions gripped parts of northern England, the Midlands, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
The coldest temperature of the winter so far at -11.2C was recorded at Loch Glascarnoch in Scotland on January 18.
It beat the previous record low of -9C, which was set on December 27 in Cromdale, Moray, also in Scotland.
