LONDONERS FACE THE BIG FREEZE
Londoners came out to play yesterday as the capital woke to a blanket of thick snow. Alexandra Park (above) was a popular spot for sledging, while City tourists at Bankside (right) took the opportunity to brave the cold and see London’s famous landmarks covered in white. The biting weather proved testing for Occupy London protesters at St Paul’s Cathedral (left), who faced camping in icy conditions with sub-zero temperatures. Up to 16cm of snow swathed parts of the UK, causing traffic problems and limited public transport. Motorists and train operators warned of potential further problems today as the snow melts and turns to ice.
