A blast of wintry conditions is expected for the UK this week - with the Met Office issuing severe weather warnings for snow and ice in large swathes of the country.
Drivers are being urged to take extra care during Monday morning's rush hour, with snowy showers expected at 200 metres above sea level in some areas.
The warnings are for Scotland, northern England and as far south as the Midlands and into eastern Wales.
A mixture of rain, hail, sleet and snow is expected on lower ground.
The Met Office said: "Accumulating snow may lead to travel disruption on routes over high ground, whilst icy stretches are also likely to form more generally on untreated surfaces.
"The public should be aware of the potential for disruption to travel during Sunday night and Monday morning."
Sky News weather presenter Isobel Lang said snow was likely to fall on Monday over the Cumbrian Fells, the Peaks, Pennines and Snowdonia, although it would be largely dry and sunny elsewhere.
She said: "On Monday night it will turn frosty, with temperatures falling to -3C. Some ice is possible in Norfolk."
According to the Met Office, "a bit of sleet" could even travel as far south as the Midlands in the coming days.
