Snowy blizzards are set to cause travel chaos and power cuts to parts of Britain from today as Storm Darcy rolls across Europe from Russia and Ukraine and brings up to four days of freezing weather.

The Met Office has warned of 'significant disruptive snowfall' in London and the South East, especially parts of East Anglia and Kent, as the 'Beast from the East 2' coats southern parts of England in snow.

Yellow and amber warnings for snow and ice for parts of Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex and Kent will remain in place until 9am tomorrow as areas experience 20cm of snow - while 166 flood alerts and 41 warnings have been put out.

They never named snowstorms when I was a kid. And we had some big ones.
