Freezing temperatures and icy conditions, as well as heavy snow in some areas, are disrupting travel as the working week begins.
Hundreds of schools are closed and rail, roads and flights are hit on the fourth day of severe wintry weather.
Met Office amber "be prepared" warnings suggest north-east England and the Scottish Borders could see 10-20cm (4-8in) of snow.
Warnings of ice affect East Anglia, southern England and south Wales.

In other developments:
In the areas of England and Scotland expecting the heaviest snow on Monday, it would be "blown in on a very strong easterly wind which will just blow the snow around and drift it in places, making for some really poor travelling conditions", said BBC forecaster Ben Rich.
The Met Office has also imposed yellow "be aware" snow warnings for much of the eastern side of England and Scotland as well as Northern Ireland.
And forecasters also warned sub-zero overnight temperatures would lead to ice forming where snow had fallen or melted during Sunday.
There are particular problems of ice predicted from an area of wet weather due to hit south-west England on Monday morning, bringing rainfall on to frozen ground as it moves across southern England.
John Caldwell, from the Highways Agency, said main roads should be clear of snow.
He added: "Although we've treated the roads consistently throughout the night the roads could still have patches of ice, so those people who do have to drive, we're asking them to keep their speed down, keep the distance between themselves and the car in front to avoid any sharp braking."
He said "hard shoulders and some of the local roads will still be very difficult".

On Sunday evening, a number of British Airways flights to Heathrow's terminal five were diverted to other UK airports after BA was unable to de-ice planes on the ground quickly enough to clear the stands.
Heathrow cancelled 300 flights on Sunday, as weather conditions also forced temporary closures of Birmingham Airport and Belfast City Airport to allow snow to be cleared, and led to more than 40 cancellations at London City Airport.
Later on in the week, the BBC Weather centre forecasts further sleet and snow at times, with widespread frost and ice likely.
