Frigid Europe: New Blizzards Hit Continent Image is dark and hard to see. All of Britain and the Continent is suffering fresh blizzards after being in the grip of a paralyzing winter for the past four weeks. In the Netherlands, the canals are frozen, closing important arteries. In Britain the livestock must be hand fed in the fields and in Belgium ships are frozen at their piers. River Thames frozen. Men dig sheep out from snow drift. Man carries sheep down hill on shoulders. Shipping ports and harbors idle, snow covered ships and dock.
