BRITAIN, shivering through its coldest winter in three decades, was hit by a fresh blanket of snow yesterday, halting flights from London Gatwick, Birmingham and Cardiff airports.
The Met Office has issued severe weather warnings for a large swathe of England, stretching from Devon to Essex and also covering the West Midlands and northwest England.
The snow fell on St Hilary's Day, the coldest day of the year according to medieval lore.
However, there were some signs of a respite to the bitter start to the new year, with the Met Office saying that milder air would bring rain across much of the country by the weekend.
Travelers at Gatwick in Sussex suffered delays after flights were suspended to allow snow to be cleared from the runway. Heathrow was open, although there were some cancellations.
