Motorists in the seaside resort of Cleveleys in Lancashire have had to contend with three-foot drifts of foam blown in off the Irish Sea.
The sea foam - or spume - is caused by waves whipping up seawater containing the offshore breakdown of algal blooms.
This video sent in by David Hewitt shows the wintry conditions on the seafront on Wednesday.
