BLIZZARD IN LONDON
HEAVY FALL OF SNOW (British Official Wireless.) Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. RUGBY, January 16. (Received January 17, at noon.) London was visited by a, blizzard early this morning. ‘Day had scarcely dawned when the sky grew as black as night again, and there was a heavy downfall of snowflakes, whipped by a sudden wind into whirling clouds. Vehicles were brought almost to a, standstill, and pedestrians, unable to struggle against the blizzard, had to take shelter. The storm lasted only half an hour, but it left the streets covered with a thick layer of snow and created great disorganisation in tho traffic. The eastern half of England generally experienced a snowstorm about tho same time.
