(SATURDAY 2/23)

"Heavy snow falls and high winds have brought
              chaos across the UK's roads as "surprise
              blizzards" and treacherous conditions caused a
              slew of accidents.

              As 20ft (six metre) snow drifts formed in some
              areas, roads were closed, people were advised
              to stay indoors and hundreds of homes were
              without power.

Another 23-vehicle collision involving cars,
              lorries and transit vans blocked the northbound
              carriageway near to Dishforth and injured 13
              people, three seriously.

A spokesman said: "We understand that there
was sunshine which suddenly turned into a
blizzard.""
