The chaos starts this weekend and rolls right into early next week. Think of it as a three-course meal of winter: a starter of sleet, a main course of heavy snow, and a dessert of bitter cold that just won’t quit.

Pro tip: If you have to travel, treat it like a military operation. Pack snacks, a blanket, and possibly a survival guide. You know, just in case the M25 turns into a giant, stationary ice rink.
