The Met Office said Bingley in northern England had seen 12 centimetres (4.7 inches) of snow overnight.
Some rural communities above 300 metres (1,000 feet) could be cut off with up to 40 cm of snow, the Met Office said.
The snow left some key roads in northern England closed with the rail line between northern Leeds and Halifax closed suspended due to the weather conditions.
