Snow continues to disrupt traffic

Snow on Monday continues to disrupt traffic in parts of the Czech Republic. Some roads in the northeastern Moravian-Silesian region are covered with ice; however, most major roads and motorways have been cleared. Bad weather has also caused problems on the rail where several local routes had to be closed for traffic. The police have registered dozens of car accidents over the last 48 hours; more problems are expected later on Easter Monday when many people are returning home from family visits.
