LONDON — Blizzards and freezing temperatures shut down runways, train tracks and highways across Europe on Saturday, disrupting flights and leaving shivering drivers stranded on roadsides.
Airports in Britain, Germany, France, Spain, the Netherlands and Denmark reported cancellations or delays to flights.
London’s Gatwick airport reopened in late afternoon after 150 employees using dozens of plows worked to clear the runway of 4 inches of snow, though officials warned flights would be limited and cancellations likely. Heathrow Airport will remain shut until today after snow and ice forced the closure of runways, according to a statement on its website.
