ABAIXO o que foi manchete da BBC
"The worst snowfall to hit the country in 18 years caused travel chaos on the roads and railways and closed scores of schools.
All bus services in London were cancelled, as were dozens of trains, and some airport runways, including both at Heathrow, were temporarily closed.
Helen Chivers, a forecaster with the Met Office, said the last time the UK saw such widespread snowfall was in February 1991. "And we're going to get more," she said. "There are a lot of showers still coming in from the North Sea."
Britain gripped by big freeze
The forecaster added that a large area of sleet and snow showers was also moving out of France and heading to the UK. A spokesman for the Highways Agency said: "If your journey is not essential I would strongly advise you don't make it."
Commuters in the south-east faced a miserable journey to work with chaos on the roads and railways. All London bus services were withdrawn and 10 of the 11 lines on the London Underground were either completely or partly suspended.
Latest travel news
A number of train services linking London and the south coast were also delayed or cancelled as snow drifted on to the tracks. Gatwick Airport and London City Airport were both temporarily shut on Sunday night as their runways were de-iced.
Snow and ice were blamed when an aircraft slipped off the taxiway and on to the grass at Heathrow airport. A BAA spokeswoman said no one was injured in the incident involving a Cyprus Air aircraft.
The snow also put the NHS under pressure, leading to operations being cancelled and a rise in the number of 999 calls. All non-urgent operations and admissions at Guy's and St Thomas's NHS Foundation Trust were cancelled and people were urged to stay away unless it was an emergency.
Many schools in the south east have closed due to the weather. A spokeswoman for Westminster Council said some of its schools were closed and the weather had forced the closure of more than 50 schools in Kent.
More than 50 schools in Birmingham and the Black Country were forced to close. Around 400 schools in Essex were closed, about three quarters of the schools in the county. "

ReplyDeleteolá, jhaíra! vc não me conhece, e eu tbm só te conheço pelas palavras de jacson, lala, rádi... pessoas bonitas que cruzaram meu caminho recentemente e, ao que parece, ficarão cravadas for ever.
ReplyDeletedescobri seu blog pelo seu perfil do orkut, que descobri através do orkut do jacs. as longas conexões...
e eu quis vir aqui te dizer que admiro muito essa sua coragem de sair por aí, pelo mundo, "prestando atenão em cores que não sabemos o nome"...
sei bem o que é isso. vim de fortal pra sampa, só com meu amor do lado, há quase dois anos, contrariando a todos que diziam que essa loucura ia dar errado.
nossa meta , hj, é ir mais longe. sp é só mais um caminho.
e pessoas como vc nos inspiram.
um abraço.
Drica, tentei deixar um recado no seu orkut mas não consegui. Faz muito bem em bloquear os curiosos. Obrigada pela mensagem. E espero que continue se jogando porque o mundo é bem menor do que parece e tem muito mais gente disposta a ajudar na travessia do que o contrário. Os caça-fantasmas encontravam fantasmas para sobreviver. Como essa não é a nossa profissão, não se preocupe com eles (ahahah).
