    Just wondering has the river started to freeze over yet around Carrick on Shannon or what is the temps like at the moment in that area?
    cheers

    I doubt it. Christmas eve and the night before were colder and it didn't. The Shannon flows fairly fast through Carrick so I'd say it would want to really plummet for a few straight days for it to freeze over.

    any chance of posting pic again, i not able to download it.
    i can't imagine Boderg being frozen, a bit of a contrast to boating and skiing there in July/August!

    all the smaller rivers were frozen but are clear at the moment was fishing the shannon over the last few weeks the main river never froze
    all the lakes are still frozen might take up to a week for them to melt as theres nerley 8 inches of ice on them

    Loughs, canals and harbours are more likely to freeze as the water is usually still (dependent on wind) whereas a river with a strong flow will rarely freeze (in Ireland).
    With this weather, we might be back to the flooding again soon:D:(
