The Met Office has issued a snow and ice weather warning for this afternoon and tomorrow across parts of the country including Greater London and Surrey.
The warning is yellow, which means be aware, rather than orange or red - be prepared or take action.
The Met says showers are expected on Thursday afternoon and evening falling increasingly as sleet, snow or hail.
Friday morning will see 'more persistent' rain, sleet and snow although most areas will not see large amounts of snow.
The NHS have issued top tips to keep yourself warm:
Draw your curtains at dusk and keep your doors closed to block out draughts.
Have regular hot drinks and eat at least one hot meal a day if possible. Eating regularly helps keep energy levels up during winter.
Wear several light layers of warm clothes (rather than one chunky layer).
Keep as active in your home as possible.
Wrap up warm and wear shoes with a good grip if you need to go outside on cold days.
If you have reduced mobility, are 65 or over, or have a health condition such as heart or lung disease, you should heat your home to at least 18C and make sure you wear enough clothes to stay warm. It's a good idea to keep your bedroom at this temperature all night.
