Up to 20cm of snow is set to fall in some parts of Wales, northern England, Northern Ireland and Scotland with icy conditions expected across the country.
It comes after motorists faced disruption and train services were cancelled with more than 200 schools forced to close on Tuesday.
Met Office Chief Meteorologist Neil Armstrong said: “The current focus for upcoming snow and ice risk is from later on Tuesday and overnight into Wednesday.
“Snow showers will likely move off windward coasts in the north and east, as well as drifting into parts of Northern Ireland and Wales.
“In excess of 10cm of snow is possible over higher ground within the warning areas, with 1-2cm possibly settling at lower levels, which has the potential to lead to some travel disruption.”
Meanwhile, several warnings for snow and ice across the UK are in place for Tuesday and Wednesday, with the possibility of stranded vehicles and power cuts.
A yellow snow and ice warning is in place for much of south Wales between 12pm and 12 midnight on Tuesday.
A yellow ice warning was issued for much of southern England and the Midlands between 5pm on Tuesday and 10am on Wednesday.
A yellow snow and ice warning is also in place for much of the east coast between 6pm Tuesday and 10am Wednesday, stretching down from Northumberland to Norwich.
Northern Ireland is also braced for snow and ice conditions between 6pm Tuesday and 10am Wednesday.
The north of Scotland also has a snow and ice warning in place between 4pm on Tuesday and 10am Wednesday.
