Drive up Sally gap and you'll see it quick enough.

Seriously go ahead I promise you won't get stuck. Infact leave your phone behind because I'm so confident.

I was just out investigating and while its basically all slush near the Seafront in Bray, it turns into real snow once you get inland from the main street. I went up the Herbert road for about half a mile and it's great - about 4-6 inches over most places and obviously deeper in the drifts. I'd say if you got even a little way up Bray Head it's good, deep snow.

That's looking up the Herbert Road from just past the side of the church.

I'm about 700m up the Putland Road from the seafront and there is a decent amount of snow here. Closer to the seafront there's apparently very little though.

Wow really? Well that's way more than milltown /rathgar area , here it's 6 inches level and about 10 or 11 inch drifts

looksee

Not sure there was a storm, but its still snowing steadily in Waterford and any photos I might take look much the same as the other Waterford pics

Sally gap is the mountains and not South Dublin, what's that got to do with anything?

A few pics of the carnage in North Kildare. Anyone saying this is a non-event needs their head examined

The snow is about 1.5 foot deep in areas where I live in D18 and drifting higher, just because you have none doesn't mean a red warning wasn't warranted. You can hardly walk outside in areas, let alone drive so I think the warning is 100% justified!

Still difficult conditions here. This pic was taken 10 mins ago.

I am seeing pictures from friends around Ireland that are absolutely amazing. The drifting is incredible.
Kildare looks especially bad. I saw one drift of 10 ft.

Mod note

You’ve made your point - repeatedly- so move on please.
It’s nothing short of deliberate thread-spoiling by you at this stage.
Post any more of your comments on warning levels in the dedicated thread only

Thanks

The warning to stay inside has been lifted because the blizzard has past? Is this true for Dublin/Leinster? It certainly doesn't look safe to be out in, in Galway.

Dun Leary, monkstown, blackrock, stillorgan , dalkey and killiney are all fine I've been driving out for the last hour

That's a pretty good chunk of where they said we would get 1 metre

Woke up at 6am to 5 inches of snow in the garden (checked with measuring tape ) , with drifts of up to two feet in places .

The dog wasn't impressed .



Cleared access to the back door , but it's been snowing heavily again for the last hour and is back piled high at the back door again , and all the snow I cleared has been well filled in .

Visibility is very poor

( not too far from Enniscorthy )

All the way down the Quinsborough road is horrible - deep wet slush everywhere - I'd say it's the same for all the parallel roads between the seafront and the main street. So any Bray people sad about the crappy snow - just get a little bit further inland or a tiny bit higher up and it's much better.

Going to see branches coming down soon enough with the weight of the snow. our bamboo is horizontal with the weight of it

There's at least 10 inches of snow in our yard now. I measured my wellies and they're 9.5 inches tall and the snow comes up above them and my foot isn't touching the actual ground underneath the snow. Some of that is left over from Wednesday and Thursday but the majority of that is overnight accumulation.
