Snow and icy weather have swept through parts of Britain, stranding drivers and leaving thousands of homes without power.
Snow also covered parts of Switzerland and southwestern Germany on Saturday, and up to 40 centimeters of snowfall was predicted in higher parts of Germany's Black Forest.
Many motorists in Britain were forced to abandon their cars or were trapped in vehicles after becoming snowed in. Dozens of people traveling from Sheffield to London spent the night in a church after their bus became stuck. Liverpool's John Lennon Airport and Leeds Bradford International closed late Friday as workers cleared snow from the runways. The airports have reopened.
