More snow for country
Wednesday 10th February 2010, 9:34AM GMT.
Temperatures fell to minus 6C (21.2F) overnight, bringing more snow and ice to Britain today.
But forecasters said the cold snap would not immediately be as severe as the December and January big chill.
A series of wintry showers swept over central and eastern Britain from the North Sea, bringing rain, sleet and snow to many places.
The west was colder overnight, with sub-zero conditions experienced in many places from Cornwall and Devon, Wales and into western Scotland.
