The extreme weather conditions have been relentless, with temperatures dropping to a bone-chilling -11C in some areas. This has led to numerous snowstorms, causing major problems for transportation on roads, rails, and even airports. In fact, flights at Manchester and Bristol airport have been halted until further notice.
Despite the weekend passing, the situation has not improved. With three weather warnings still in effect, millions of commuters are bracing for another day of interruptions. The rural communities are also at risk of being cut off, as an additional 15 cm of snow is expected to fall today.
