them to decide to close the port com pletely them to decide to close the port completely but when you consider it has been shot twice in as many days it gives you an idea of how bad the weather has been. here in dover this afternoon we had very wet snow, it has not settled but that turned into freezing ice and now that has stopped, but what we do have is the wind picking up. we are certainly not out of the widget. for those trying to get across the channel, it has been a challenging day. skipping in the snow in sevenoaks after it came down quickly on already icy roads, getting around got a lot harder. challenging conditions on the channel in the snow and the wind. dover disrupted as calais closed for a second day in a row. eurotunnel hit hard as well, this couple are finally back in the warm. they were booked onto a train just before nine yesterday evening, they finally got on one at four a:m.. we

we re finally got on one at four a:m.. we were treated badly by eurotunnel, a com plete were treated badly by eurotunnel, a complete lack of care or understanding by any of them. there we re understanding by any of them. there were no staff around at all apart from one guy in a hut, a woman who wandered around around two o'clock and that was it, absolutely nothing. we were just abandoned in this freezing cold car park to our own devices. eurotunnel said it did its best in 90 mph winds, sleet and hell and one of the fairies is now out of service after it grounded yesterday and calais with 300 people on board. the marine accident investigation branch wants to know why. back on wetla nd, branch wants to know why. back on wetland, a tree down in deal made this road treacherous. some schools such as this one allowed parents to pick up pupils at lunchtime as the freeze started to bite. it is a very difficult decision. we have heard of the accident in the town centre

involving a number of cars, so for the safety of children, we have given some flexibility. the snow was greeted with different reactions. given some flexibility. the snow was greeted with different reactionslj like greeted with different reactions.” like snow will stop because you can have snowball fights.” like snow will stop because you can have snowball fights. i had to drive my mum to hastings and it took me over two hours to get there and then i had to drive back again.” over two hours to get there and then i had to drive back again. i have been driving all day. the warning, prepare for a prolonged period of ice. simonjones, prepare for a prolonged period of ice. simon jones, bbc prepare for a prolonged period of ice. simonjones, bbc south east today. although the ferries down there are getting back to normal, there are getting back to normal, there are getting back to normal, there are problems tonight on eurotunnel once again. they are saying that passengers are facing a couple of hours of delays waiting to get on trains at folkestone due to the bad weather and the big concern 110w the bad weather and the big concern now is that you have had the snow falling today, that is where it

falling today, that is where it falling onto already frozen ground and the temperature is expected to drop even further tonight, so a real concerns about conditions on the road tonight and then shoot tomorrow. the critters will be out in full force but the reality is when the roads are wet and it continues to reign, sometimes they salt they put down is washed away. it could be another very difficult day on the roads in the morning. many thanks for that. time for a look at the weather... thank you forjoining me. our real concerns over night is the extent of the lying snow and the fact that we may well find quite a widespread problem on untreated services with ice. disruption is possible. still picturesque but we have some of that line snow provided you can get over your own driveway. elsewhere, the snow has become something of an issue on the highest ground only

have to look for it, but otherwise it has been a decent sort of day. still some showers to be had in the north and west of scotland, through northern ireland, the west of wales and into the south west and still a supply of showers and low pressure which has brought windy weather in parts of east anglia and the south—east. those winds easing off and clearing skies following behind, evenin and clearing skies following behind, even in the towns and cities. where you have that line snow, this is where we get the headline makers, -10, -11, -12 or where we get the headline makers, —10, —11, —12 orso. let us where we get the headline makers, —10, —11, —12 or so. let us see how you will fare tomorrow as we start the new day on the school run or just the commute. enough in the way of cloud and breeze to keep the frost at bay in east anglia but england, see how the temperatures plummet, watch out for patches of fog as well, but even in the major areas, in the midlands, down 2—7d and in manchester and sheffield,

down to minus five. it is a brighter day for the most part, a crisp sort of day and that sunshine doing nothing for the temperatures at all. later in the day, another band of cloud in from the atlantic, with the associated rain and for a time, particularly over the higher ground, there will be transient snow as we bring the moisture in from the atlantic. elsewhere, sunshine, but no hate. here is the picture into wednesday, one pulse of cloud working its way across the british isles. it starts the new day on wednesday and then some really hefty showers following on behind, ganging together to rob you of the sunshine until we break out into something drier and brighter and the temperatures are at last on the up. you're watching beyond 100 days. countdown to the roy moore election — can someone who's been accused of molesting a child be elected us senator? president trump hopes so — he's recorded a message urging

alabama voters to support the republican candidate. this is the deep south and whatever moore's record, voting for a democrat mayjust be a step too far. especially as the republican denies the charges. an attempt at a terror attack on the new york subway injures four people and the attacker is in custody. they accused donald trump of sexual harassment during the election campaign. now three women want congress to act. also on the programme... the snow is creating chaos across europe. a quarter of the flights have been cancelled at the uk's busiest airport, heathrow. christopher plummer is nominated for a golden globe
