- Story Text: The runway at Liverpool John Lennon Airport in northern England was closed for several hours on Sunday morning (January 5) due to heavy snowfall, the airport said in a statement on X.
While the runway was reopened later in the morning, the temporary closure caused flights cancellations and delays.
Video obtained by Reuters showed snow falling at the airport. Reuters was able to confirm the location of the video from the shape and position of buildings which matched file and satellite imagery. The date of the video was confirmed by the original file metadata.
Britain woke up to freezing temperatures and snow on Sunday as authorities kept amber weather warnings in place across central and northern England, as well as Wales.
