Smasher of a day here. Starting to get windy so that bit rawer than this morning.
Last week's urea has giving the grass a kick. A shame it will be under cover by Friday.

Maybe better off being under cover., the insulation being ..protection from severe cold. I reckon the sooner you get a snow cover, the better for the grass..

Back snowing heavy again.
Starting to stick again.

Got the cows in even though they wanted to stay out.

Cabin fever starting to set in.

A road accident on the duncannon line near murrintown.
Multiple cars involved.
Visibility was poor at the time with heavy blowing snow.
Hope no body was injured.

Take it handy folks!

I dunno how you're supposed to measure snow but I went out there with a tape and dipped it several times across a paddock here. There's 4 1/2 " so far. Just after a heavy enough shower.
It's deeper along the fence where it blew up against the windbreak.
It's a long time since I saw snow like that.

It doesn't feel as cold out as earlier either.

Hard Knocks

-4 with some “powder” but that wind would go through you

You're supposed to use the plate meter....30 dips and walk the paddock in a w pattern..

-4.5 and 2-3cm of dry powdery snow.
Continuing to snow a bit here all the time.

Mooooo

Bah humbug

Fair bit of snow here. Kids out playing in it. Milking done. Powerhose frozen though. Should thaw later

Everthing fed and content...back to bed

-4 here, about 2ins snow on the ground... a grand spring day :-)

Cattle were out in snow when I went to feed them earlier.
They came into shed, ate their meal and are back out in the snow mooching about.

Really the only thing they don’t like is cold blowing rain.

What are conditions like around Durrow in Laois?

I need to travel up that area later on in the evening.
