Parts of England are being battered by "thundersnow" storms as the winter weather continues to bite across Britain. Met Office forecaster Simon Partridge said: "We have got snow falling in a number of areas in the North and West, including thunderstorms. "There is thundersnow to the north of Manchester - these are normal thunderstorms but with snow rather than rain." Main roads in Durham and Yorkshire are among those closed because of the weather and more than a dozen rail services between Manchester and York have been cancelled, as northern England is hit by the storms this morning. Phil Verster, route managing director for Network Rail, advised train passengers to check before they travel. Flights to and from Manchester Airport have been suspended until 10.30am, with flights being diverted, an airport spokesman said. Passengers are advised to come to the airport as normal but to check with their airline. Source: sky news
