Opinion on snow/ice this year.

I'll hate it if it stops me getting home for Christmas. Took a few attempts last year

I went to Maynooth. The snow never sticks on campus. It's all the hot air.

Regarding the winter, it will start snowing in mid to late November and stay on the ground until mid February. Mean daytime temperatures will be -25.

We're all going to freeze to death. Or worse.

How does anyone know that it'll snow this early?
Don't think it will.

I was bored the other night & had a read of the Weather Forum.

The weather nerds are practically **** themselves silly at the thought of another shit winter.

did you get any of those ice grip things with metal studs on that slip over a shoe and give you some grip ? I was thinking of ordering some from amazon etc . Every other year the retail stores charge well over the odds plus have a limited supply

They're a fiver in Penneys

I lit my stove the other day and set off the fire alarms cos the house got too hot. :mad: Mother fecker I want to lit my fire. I want freezing temps, frosty breath and a mother fecking fire NOW. I want to pull the bed clothes back in the morning and think oh shiit thats cold.

Love it! I travel a fair distance to work and am always told not to attempt to come in when it's really bad. I got in trouble actually last year for going in on a particularly bad day. I need a day off and all my holidays went this year on non-holiday related stuff. Snow day would be perfect

Snow doesn't affect me at all, have a 4x4 for getting around and my house is well insulated, if the water is shut off, its no big problem.
But snow affects my job and my employer lost a fortune last year because of it, so i'm hopping for a nice week of snow around mid january, wont effect business too much and i love playing outside with my dogs in the snow.

I look forward to M T Cranium receiving Post of the Day almost constantly and the return of the RTÉ humourous weather updates.

You know its a slow news day when M T Cranium gets post of the day.

i love it and cant wait for it. its far better then the ****ty rain and mud and dull dark skies the whole time. at least its bright when it snows.

and lets be fair, driving conditions are not the hazard on the roads, its idiot drivers driving too fast or not knowing how to control their cars on the snow/ice that are the hazard.

people drive as they do on normal days and think if they just drive slower they will be fine. takes a little more then that.

and the snow keeps a lot of these people off the roads so getting around is easy enough.


also, i have to laugh at the wording of poll option no.2
"i hate having to be careful on the roads"

exactly the type of people that shouldnt be on the road in the first place.
