Met Office meteorologist Sophie Yeomans said: "Most of the country is in the colder and showery air.
"The snow is mainly on the hills, while for most places the showers are falling as rain and maybe a bit of sleet.
"We've got some ice warnings; the weather front that has gone through has left rain on the ground, so as the air temperatures start to drop ground temperatures will be below zero and that's giving the risk of ice across most of the UK.
"So look out for any areas where the surfaces haven't been treated. On untreated surfaces there's a risk of slips and falls.
"There's also a risk of some icy surfaces on any untreated roads."
