People go sledging in Dunorlan park in Tunbridge Wells following a heavy snowfall on February 27, 2018.A blast of Siberian weather sent temperatures plunging across much of Europe on Tuesday, causing headaches for travellers and leading to several deaths from exposure as snow carpeted palm-lined Mediterranean beaches. / AFP PHOTO / Ben STANSALL        (Photo credit should read BEN STANSALL/AFP/Getty Images)

Just like the rare snowfall in Rome [1], Great Britain was coated in Siberian snow, better known as "the Beast From the East" this week. Not only did it make for a photo album of scenic shots [2], but it encouraged snowfall enthusiasts to fully immerse themselves in the weather change. We're talking about grown adults on skis in mere inches of snow. And behind any enthusiast is a British cynic ready to bring them back down to earth in Twitter form. Read on for the best Twitter reactions to those who perhaps enjoyed the snow a little too much.
