UK struggles with heavy snow

Heavy snow in Great Britain led to air and rail chaos on Friday. Hundreds of flights were cancelled and airports closed, and several main line railway services were interrupted. Thousands of schools closed across the country making a long weekend for some, and there is more snow on the way with a major fall forecast for Wales before the weather eases sometime on Saturday.
