Departures have been suspended at Berlin Brandenburg Airport on Thursday morning because freezing rain has made it impossible to de-ice aircraft, an airport spokeswoman has said. The disruption has affected air travel in the German capital as the national weather service warns of dangerous icy conditions, although landings initially appear unaffected. What Berlin airport advised passengers to do? Passengers were told to expect flight cancellations and significant delays.

A complex mix of snow, heavy rain, strong winds and possibly freezing rain will mark an end to the cold spell that has been in place across the UK since the start of the year. A low pressure system to the northwest of the UK will drive milder air and strong winds across the UK on Sunday. With cold air in place across the north, snow is likely to accumulate before turning to rain later on Sunday.
