The Met Office has issued an update as a 'snowbomb' is set to swoop across the United Kingdom.
Forecaster WX Charts has already said there could be more than 10 inches of snowfall across the country by the middle of January.
Heavy snow is anticipated nationwide, as Newcastle and Northumberland are hit heavily, reports BirminghamLive.
Scotland also looks set for a dusting while flurries are anticipated further south in the Midlands and Wales, as well as the Cotswolds, North West of England, and Cumbria.
Eleven inches are expected in Scotland, while 4cm may be found in Manchester and Scotland's capital city of Edinburgh.
But the Met Office, looking from January 14 to January 28, has predicted: "Through the second half of January, a continuation of the rather changeable regime is expected with spells of wet and windy weather interspersed by drier, brighter periods."
"Temperatures are overall expected to remain slightly above average as a result of mild spells and shorter-lived colder periods," the forecasting agency adds.
"These shorter-lived colder periods may still allow for some snow but this will typically fall over hills in the north."
The forecasting agency also warns to take care and exercise caution amid fog and frost.
