Early snows as cold snap hits northwestern Europe
Dec 17 10:37 AM US/Eastern

Early winter snows forced French authorities to close the Eiffel Tower on Thursday and disrupted transport as northwest Europe braced for a pre-Christmas cold snap.
The French capital and much of the north of the country awoke to find a three-inch (seven-centimetre) blanket of snow, which delayed flights from Charles de Gaulle airport by up to two hours.

The iconic Eiffel Tower was closed to visitors, and train and bus services were delayed in many areas, as daytime temperatures dropped below zero for the first time in the year and black ice coated northern roads.

Snow also fell in Britain, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands and weather experts forecast worse to come, with several inches of snow cover expected over the weekend along with disruption in Scotland and northern England.
