For those who endured the snowy commute to their heated work places on Monday, spare a thought for our animal friends who made it through the day without even a hot water bottle to warm their furry paws or chattering hooves.
The animals at Whipsnade Zoo, Bedfordshire, have stoically posed for heart-warming pictures in the snow.
If you go down to the snow-covered Zoo today you'll see a grumpy bear, a shivering Kangaroo, an Onager looking like a downtrodden Eeyore, and a waddle of penguins who appear perfectly at home in their wintry surroundings.
Take a look at the animals of ZSL Whipsnade Zoo enjoying the latest flurry of snow:
