Let there be snow .........

Let there be snow.................. for the slush is not much fun.

These are scenes from the Hollyfort to Tinahely road just beyond the Wicklow 'Gap pub. The snow/slush/ice is about 10" deep and has been churned up by vehicles with snow chains and other traffic. Once in a rut it's hard to get out but at least once in you won't be sliding sideways. Trouble is that in some spots there is only two ruts centred in the road and traffic coming both ways is using them. It's harder to drive on that the compacted snow of two days ago.

Not too far from me Greysides.. just up the road in Annacurra. We'll probably thaw out 2 weeks after everyone else

A lot! Couldn't get to work 3 days the first week, and 1 day this week. Couldn't get out of the estate down to the village. At least a foot of snow throughout. Glad its clearing. Tired of shovelling!

The Tinahely road is reported clear now after a snowplough went along it.
