    'Official' garden table depth 63mm. That's nearly 2.5 inches! No wind, so snow is settling flat.

    Still coming down heavy and alternating between fine powdery stuff and big flakes.

    0.9c DP 0.3c

    Very heavy snow back, coving everything.
    Going to be very bad around Old Bawn, in Tallaght by the looks of things.

    I went out side and slipped on my ass, hurt like hell.:o

    Depends where in Dundrum you are? Once you give any approach road to the M50 a very wide berth, you may be o.k.

    Just took my wife 50 minutes to get from Churchtown to Ballinteer.

    Wasn't planning on using the M50. Up Newtown Park Ave, Up through Stillorgan, Lower Kilmacud road, Taney Road into Dundrum. Took two hours on Tuesday I'm guessing worse today.

    If you can leave your ar where it is do so then Dart/Luas your way out to Dundrum. I'd imagine that these means of transport may be the most unaffcted by the snow.

    Yes...probably...what I meant was anywhere near the M50 will be chaotic, including the Upper Kilmacud Road (had second hand experince of this as it took my wife 1hr 50minutes to get from Upper Kilmacud Road to Ballinteer on Tuesday!)

    Still 0.9c DP 0.3c and still snowing.
