Temperatures are expected to fall below freezing, and with the wind chill factor it could feel as cold as -5C.
Met Office spokesman Martin Bowles said a cold front was approached from the north-west, working its way south leaving a ‘substanial’ amount of settling snow.
‘It will continue to work its way into the south east, but as it does so it will become a much weaker affair so actually pretty much the whole country can expect to get some snow between six o’clock this evening and six o’clock tomorrow,’ he said yesterday.
