From now I'm going to be having a good auld moan about our situation here in the West. Screw this country!! Lovely blue skies in Galway City now, too cold to try and attempt an igloo, even if i did try the snow is too powdery. I'm gonna say it, I'm gonna flippin say it: I WISH I LIVED IN DUBLIN!!!:eek:

But then you would have to shower.

White out blizzard here in Kerry :):):):) that snow map earlier was right!

patneve2

Unreal scenes in Dalkey, closed roads, car crashes and whiteout going just on and on. Easily a foot of snow now

Bucketing down in Dublin 4. I absolutely LOVE the snow but at the
same time am now worried about getting home for Christmas.

All this talk of trains being booked out scares the **** out of me.

Snow still stopped in Wexford. Occasional light dustings, sighting blue sky to the east. I think that might be it for today.

LID

:pStarting agin in Crumlin, Dublin 12!!

BEASTERLY

AVOID WEXFORD TOWN AREA AT ALL COSTS.

Pandemonium all over the place. Glad to see alot people are using their heads and leaving there cars on the side of the road.

Snow Update from Dublin 3/Clontarf

Its pissing down with snow now. Massive flakes, pretty dense adding to the overall accumulation on the ground.

I'd advise anyone heading out to North County Dublin this evening to get the hell out of dodge lads. Wife just rang from Donabate and apparently there is 6 inches out there. Now, she isn't always the greatest at guesstimating in fairness so she is taking a pic with something to compare and sending it on.

You can be sure if Donabate is bad, then the M1 northbound is going to be bedlam.

Book now Shiny. I'm heading to Ballina. On Christmas eve there are only tickets on the 1830 (Who'd want that, not getting home until 10 and probably after with the weather!). On the 22nd and 23rd there's only tickets on the 730 (I can't book that til I know about school)!
