Manchester airport "temporarily" closes its runways due to heavy snowfall in the UK

MADRID, 10 Dic. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The management of Manchester Airport has decided to "temporarily" close its runways due to the heavy snowfall that hit the United Kingdom this weekend and that has led to the activation of the yellow alert due to inclement weather in part of the country.

As Manchester Airport has detailed on its official Twitter profile, this measure has been taken in order to preserve "the health and integrity" of both employees and passengers. "Operations will resume as soon as possible," they added.

The UK Met Office has already warned in previous days that fog, sleet, snow and frost could cause travel disruptions over the next few days in British territory, according to Sky News.

However, the competent authorities have stressed that the possible points most affected by inclement weather are the west of England, some parts of Northern Ireland, the southwest of Scotland and Wales, according to the BBC.
