    Some of the photos were shocking however. I do suspect that some of '82 was more localised than the impression given on threads.

    Yes my older relatives have told me time and time again that 82 was only exceptional for north leinster ie Dublin, Meath, East Kildare and South Louth. There was far less snow in south Leinster and basically nothing from the midlands westwards.

    Oh it must be just desperate for all involved,workers,families stranded,and relatives worried,can't think of much else worse.Fair play to the airport workrs for doing all they can in this unpreceedented weather.

    Certainly looks like our snow is coming to and end in the next 12 hours or so but the models are showing that the UK will be plastered on Christmas Day.

    If that forecast changes and moves to the West then the East Coast will be hammered again :eek:

    We can only wait with fingers crossed (some want more snow, some don't)

    All my relations and neighbours from back home in south Louth do not remember 1982 as being particularly bad. I was talking with some of them recently after the foot or so of snow in the area. They all separately said the 1978/1979 winter was much worse, and which ended up with a hefty snowstorm on St. Patrick's day 1979.

    They're gonna end up closing it again, by the sounds of it. They're certainly earning their money out there.
