Snow results in temporary closure of major road near Paris At least one major road to the southwest of the French capital was closed to traffic for a few hours after flurries brought several centimetres of heavy snow. The RN118 reopened this afternoon but speed restrictions were in effect, and the road was due to be closed to truck traffic again from 9:00 pm (2000 GMT) as a new storm front approaches.
