GALES LASH BRITAIN
HEAVY SNOWFALLS IN THE WEST. COASTAL SHIPPING DELAYED. By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. Rugby, Feb. 22. Winds of gale force swept the British Isles again to-day and exceptionally heavy rain fell in many places, while snowfalls were recorded in the Midlands and West of England, a snow plough being necessary to clear some of the Derbyshire roads. Coastal shipping was severely affected in the high seas and the mail steamer St. Hellier, due to berth at Jersey in the Channel Islands early in the day, was unable to enter the harbour until late afternoon. Considerable damage was done in the islands by winds.
