Have your travel plans been affected by the snow?  Although the roads in Marlow are clear, some Heathrow flights have been cancelled today.

According to reports, over six inches of snow fell over Britain yesterday and during the night causing chaos on the roads.

Around 100 vehicles were stranded on the M40 and the M25 suffered massive tailbacks as drivers tried to reach their destinations in treacherous conditions.

At Heathrow Airport today, 200 flights were automatically cancelled in an attempt to minimise large-scale disruption, while across the rest of Europe airports - most better equipped than in the UK - were anticipating business as usual.

According to BBC weather reports today, snow will start to clear across the south-east, with temperatures remaining very cold.  There may also be outbreaks of rain.
