What are the predictions for Waterford for the evening? I'm meant to be in work until twelve so would like to know what I'm facing if any of you could help!

Its awful out there now, just as heavy as last night, the roads are a nightmare i would imagine. Its last night Part 2 same levels. Don't drive if you can avoid it. Radar is saying another few hours of this on and off. Be safe anyway, feel for ya.

I see Belmullet had snow in the 8pm report.

Proper snow - not that east coast pussy streamer snow.

Anyone know what the outlook for D.16 is for the night? Ive measured it at six and a half inches today in the garden. Thats the build up since all the fun began.

@davemc6832 If that fell on my head I think I would just turn into this enormous h-bomb like ball of rage on my front door XD

I need your help.
We HAVE to travel from Galway to Cavan tomorrow.
We normally go by Athlone but we have been told the bypass is really bad and beyond that is impassable.
Does anyone have any info about it??
Maybe would it be better going via Roscommon and Longford??
Help!!!

Listen to midlands local radio and check aaroadwatch.ie minutely and leave plenty of time, maybe go to Mullingar and Kells and then Cavan.
