Hundreds die as cold grips Western Europe
By United Press International
LONDON — London temperatures plunged to their lowest mark in 29 years yesterday, keeping even criminals at bay as the death toll from an Arctic cold wave lashing Europe surpassed 300.
Heavy snow fell in Portugal, Spain and Italy, and new avalanches were reported in Albania, where 57 people were killed in snowslides in the last week.
Temperatures in London dropped to 26 degrees Fahrenheit, the capital's coldest day since Feb. 1, 1956, the weather bureau said.
In the countryside near the English Channel, farmers dug out from snowdrifts of up to five feet and said it was the heaviest snow in 20 years. Newspapers dubbed the area "the Siberia of Western Europe."
In the Thames Valley area west of London, the cold snap has brought snow to parts of England.
"CRIMINALS DON'T WANT to go
out in this any more than the rest of us, and burglargs keep the footprints they leave in the snow give us a real touch to fracing the snow," a police officer said.
The freezing weather led to a shortage of London area hospital beds, newspapers said, and one member of Parliament said the capital's situation should stay all night without homeless people a warm place to sleep.
Since the cold wave began early this month, at least 320 people have been reported killed. The breakdown: 128 in France, 57 in Albania, 35 in Italy, 30 in Spain, 20 in Austria, six in Portugal, 26 in Yugoslavia, 15 in Germany and at least three in Switzerland.
SWISS POLICE SAID an unidentified California man was killed in a small avalanche while skiing Tuesday. Two Swiss skiers disappeared in freezing cold and were presumed dead by police.
