Dover and Deal covered in blanket of snow
Several inches of snow have fallen on the Dover and Deal
area.
Main roads are passable with care, but motorists have been
advised to avoid side roads and some residential streets. They are
being urged not to venture out unless their journeys are vital.
There had been a covering of snow during the past few days, but
snow fell continuously on Sunday morning and into the
afternoon.
Children and their parents were out making the most of it, with
Whitfield Hill, Kearsney Abbey and Connaught Park being among the
most popular sledging venues.
A large snowman was built in River Recreation Ground and
others appeared in gardens and fields.
Dover Athletic's football match was called off at Crabble on
Saturday.
As temperatures drop overnight, people are being warned to be
careful on what are likely to be very slippery surfaces on roads
and pavements.
