A brutal cold blast is making its way to the UK from the east, and it is set to lay on the UK a 712-mile wall of snow, stretching from Durness in Scotland to Ashford in England, according to weather maps.
Weather maps generated by WXCHARTS on February 2 indicate snow is on its way, as well as sub-zero weather conditions.
The blast is forecasted to smash into the UK at midnight on Wednesday, February 12. Scotland will be among the areas to be hit by the blast, with two centimetres of snow likely to fall every hour.
Elsewhere, Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk and Cumbria could all see snowflakes fall, with snow depths set to reach one centimetre, the maps suggest.

As we go throughout the day, the snow shows no sign of going anywhere and will gradually spread across the UK.
WXCHARTS predict that at midday, Scotland will almost be blanketed in snow, while the northeast, the east Midlands and Yorkshire and the Humber will all see one centimetre of snow fall every hour.
Parts of the south East are predicted to see one centimetre of snowfall every hour. Temperatures will also take a nosedive, as the Scottish Highlands and the entirety of Wales are forecasted to see temperatures plunge to between -4 to -3C.
The rest of Scotland won’t see temperatures surpass an icy -2C. The southwest, in particular Devon and Cornwall will see some of the iciest temperatures of around -3C.
Although London is predicted to escape the snow, the capital will not avoid the plummeting temperatures, according to the forecast. London, the east of England and east Midlands will all see the mercury hover at around a cool -2C.
The Met Office's weather outlook for this period is predicting that "high pressure will sit close to (and probably to the east of) the UK in this period".
"Consequently, southern and eastern areas are likely to see the driest conditions, with lightest winds, which could lead to overnight frost and fog with temperatures a little below normal."
There is also a "very low chance that if the high orientates in such a way that a more easterly (rather than southerly/southeasterly) flow develops, a spell of much colder conditions could develop across the UK, with a risk of wintry showers in some parts."
