Britain's snow chaos is set to continue this week, with parts of the country blighted by blizzards right up until Easter Day.
Forecasters predict temperatures could plunge to -10C, there will be widespread snow showers and 45mph winds in the lead-up to the holiday weekend.
Snow is now highly likely in some areas on Good Friday, Saturday and Easter Day, with only a slight respite expected on Bank Holiday Monday.
It comes as homes in North Yorkshire, Cumbria and East Anglia have already been buried in drifts as high as four feet.
