After a week of blizzards, freezing rain and brutal wind — some of the worst winter weather Britain has seen in decades — the sun finally emerged in northern England on Monday. For most of England, the warmer conditions brought a thaw after a week of chaos, but for many in remote regions like some of the hills of the Pennines, the worst was far from over. The extreme winds and snows left several rural communities stranded for days with limited food and fuel, prompting the military to drop emergency supplies by helicopter. Local farmers were hit especially hard, with several losing livestock because of the deep snows, freezing temperatures and wind gusts up to 105 m.p.h. Chris Harrison, a sheep farmer in Alston who owns more than 700 head, said he took early precautions and moved his herd to safer ground when the storm was forecast last week. But still, he said, nothing had prepared him for the scale of the bad weather. “We have 10 miles of stone walls to maintain,” he said. By “we” he meant himself and his son, who together look after the sheep and 20 head of cattle on the 1,250-acre farm. @laetitiavancon took this photo of Chris feeding his sheep at his farm.
