Jersey's Meteorological Department has issued a red warning for heavy snow for both Jersey and Guernsey, the highest warning for severe weather conditions.
It said sleet was expected to turn to snow, and gale to severe gale-force winds were expected to lead to blizzard conditions by mid to late morning.
Significant snow drifts were also expected, the department added.
Wind chill is expected to result in temperatures falling to -9C (19F).
Jersey's Education Department advised parents to prepare for possible school closures, and to make childcare arrangements in advance.
