Airports shut and flights cancelled as UK shivers under a blanket of snow with high of TEN INCHES falling in the Brrrr-econ Beacons

Daily Mail
"Ten inches of snowfall was recorded at Powys, near Brecon, and eight inches (19 cm) at Sennybridge in Wales. A major mountain rescue operation was launched to find a hillwalker who became separated from her group at Cairn Toul mountain in the Cairngorms at around 12.45pm. She was later found and reunited with the group. There were cancellations and delays at most airports, but flights continued to arrive and depart. The M4 closed between Bristol and Bridgend and there were 352 cancellations at Heathrow. Just 10 flights left Europe's busiest airport every hour – compared to the usual 42."
