Easter weekend of misery forecast
1:00pm Wednesday 19th March 2008
We're facing a weekend of misery this Easter with forecasters warning of wintry weather, and long delays expected on roads and rail.
With Easter falling just one day off the earliest it can possibly be, forecasters were predicting snow in Scotland and some parts of north eastern and eastern England over the holiday period.
While hundreds of thousands will travel from airports and sea ports to sunnier climes, those left behind were being warned to expect the worst Easter yet on the roads.
And with Network Rail carrying out engineering work on many rail routes, train travellers were facing disrupted journeys.
