Heavy snow has fallen across large parts of the UK, disrupting travel and closing thousands of schools.

South-east England has the worst snow it has seen for 18 years, causing all London buses to be pulled from service and the closure of Heathrow's runways.

Let us know what you think.

  • I agree that this video only show a very small amount of snow.

    But they're not used to it. People are often afraid of something they're not used to. People probably don't know how to drive. Some will drive way too slow, while other get aggravated and want to overtake and drive faster. Formula for disaster.

    Canada has proper snow clearing equipment and many people have snow tires. I don't think this weather would have put any dent in anything here...

    All the best from Canada.

  • I remember this. I got stuck at Stansted airport for about 40h. Felt like i was in that movie Home Alone.

  • It was fun for a day and then it got silly

  • lo,l i live in Wisconsin USA and we'll get 1-2 feet of snow in one storm.

  • It's news because it never snows like this in southern England. You said it yourself: "hardly rare up here" - somethng that happens all the time is not, by definition, NEWS. Is it?

    What is "laughable and pathetic" is little-minded comic-book stereotype xenophobes like you on youtube. Brush that chip off your sholder and get a grip on the real world.

  • i really want the snow to fall heavy here its not fair england keeps gettin it when it comes back, and thousands of schools have been of for an exstendened week of their christmas holiday, why is people whining about having it i want to get and extra week off school

  • BBC...I tell you a feckin snow 'story': The Anglocentric 'British' media has been frankly feckin (predictably and pityfully!) LAUGHABLE! We've had snow here (N Scotland) since approx 21st Dec! My sister's been house-bound, due to FEET of the stuff since 22nd Dec - hardly rare up here! It's LAUGHABLE and pathetic watching Beeb and Sky News reoprts, that started relatively recently - showing ingirlindhsire not NEARLY as bad as up here! Get a GRIP Beeb! Saaaaf East has FOOK ALL! SOD the BBC!

  • britain should get a system in place coz it looks like we'r gonna get snow like this every winter, currently its ridiculous, everything comes to a standstill & buisnesses lose millions, cant beleive the news headlines for the past 7 days has been about the snow.

    its a beautiful thing so enjoy it, dont get stressed out.

  • So Global warming is hitting us hard now I see. This flies in the face of the global warming so called science. Global TAX global GOVERNMENT is what they are all about not saving the environment. Fuck the NWO...
