Message to cork people, post up a few pictures please want to see this madness

It was -6 here in Cork at 1am. Bitterly cold outside. Pretty good coverage just from today's event. Can only imagine what tomorrow will bring !

Seems to be very much that Dublin will be right on the borderline, so it's extremely hard to say right now.

Heavy dry drifting snow on the beach in March. Epic.

Light snow shower in Clonmel. Only about 3cm of lying snow:o

Short fetch ruined it for us today and yesterday. Tomorrow we have ringside seats:D

I'm in Clondalkin. I had a look out the window. There is something falling, and the wind was blowing it in all directions. I can't even see the school across the way. Unless there's fog too?

no fog with wind aha, its just that heavy- similar affect on visibility to fog.

I went down the steps you see in the video and it is over two feet but I assume that is because it is drifting. If it gets any deeper I'm not sure I'll be able to stop myself jumping the wall to land in it.

This is due to the longest fetch possible across the Irish sea and a short track across the UK landmass too - more chance of showers beefing up and lasting the entire journey

Screenshotted the webcam just now. Weird to see Temple Bar looking so pristine.

-4.7c here in West Clare, remarkable as I'm so close to the sea and such temperatures are extremely rare. I'd expect it to keep dropping too!

If the internet goes down in Cork then boards will become a graveyard

Eir internet is dropping for 30s to a minute every now and then. Keepin' fingers crossed.

Nothing like being a bar having a pint, watching the weather during a Red alert

Some powdery snow reaching Limerick now

Had snow in Galway around 7 30 in the morn..nothing till about 7 that evening and only maybe 1 to 2 cm so why red alert..
I work on the roads and actually live now in Waterford but work takes me to all corners Currently stay in airbnb in south Galway..Had snow at 8, 10 and 1 so far . Everything stuck and froze. what people don't know is driving on fresh snow is better than frozen ice

Groovy, looking like Dickens's Christmas Carol.
