Chipping Norton has a 90 per cent chance of heavy snow between 2pm and 4pm, according to the Met Office.
It comes as bands of rain, sleet and snow have been moving across the UK, bringing dangerous driving conditions - particularly around Manchester, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and Berkshire.
There is more snow on the way in Oxfordshire, with the Met Office issuing a yellow weather warning which will be in place from 6pm tomorrow until 2pm on Thursday.
