    Will it freeze over night as planning to run to work in the morning?

    Hi, could anyone be kind enough to tell me if there if anything more on the radar for Offaly this evening? I don’t want to spend half the night lamppost watching for nothing. Thanks in advance.

    A couple of centimetres in Dublin 15. Enough for a snowball fight with the kids.

    Indeed. Once you go up to Ravensdale it's a different world. The M1 was a mess there at 4:30. Can imagine what's it like now. They have been plowing it since the morning

    Casement reporting moderate to heavy snow at 8pm. That's a rare status for Dublin these days!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,573 ✭✭✭WhiteMemento9


    Is this suppose to clear in the morning or continue tomorrow?


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,579 ✭✭✭kingshankly


    Mad seeing pubs and shops closed it’s like Xmas day


  • Registered Users Posts: 415 ✭✭browner85


    Any more snow coming in the Dublin direction ??

    I have never seen wind drive snow as hard in my life.

    Driving down the M7 in the last hour and just outside Kildare the motorway disappeared (no gritters out) and heavy snowfall. Was a bit dodgy for a few km but it's pretty much died off just past the Laois border.

    Crazy stuff.. this is why I hate this sort of weather. We are never prepared for it, it causes chaos and it adds significantly to the stress and hassle of an already long commute.

    I think ice will only be an issue where snow has actually settled on pavements. Outside of these areas the wind will help keep ice from forming so it will remain wet.


  • Registered Users Posts: 207 ✭✭lillielad


    Will there be more snow it Letterkenny lads, sorry for asking again.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,276 ✭✭✭kenmc


    So, do I put the winter tyres on the bike or not. Decisions decisions

    "It was falling softly upon the Bog of Allen and, further westwards, softly falling into the dark mutinous Shannon waves. It was falling too upon every part of the lonely churchyard where Michael Furey lay buried. It lay thickly drifted on the crooked crosses and headstones, on the spears of the little gate, on the barren thorns. His soul swooned slowly as he heard the snow falling faintly through the universe and faintly falling, like the descent of their last end, upon all the living and the dead.

    Plenty of lying sneachta on the estates around my part of Tallaght. Great to see! Fair play Kermit you never gave up the ghost!

    Snowman alert in the Cavan area!!

    Drove from Dub to the Mon Fermanagh border this evening. Nightmare. You only appreciate road markings when they are gone. Was in the company of a lot of responsible road users though.

    Buying gritters or snow ploughs ain't cheap and having them lying around not been used for years on end is pointless.

    The last time I seen snow like this in rathfarnham was 7 years ago and the extra few minutes it takes to get home safe is not an issue and that snow will be gone by the morning

    A favorite of mine, I have to admit to monologging on my way home, watching the snow gently drift across the lights of the M50.
    Peaceful.
