Snowmagedagain

Out getting supplies for snowmageddon at the moment - people (not me) are starting to panic buy here, lidl shelves were getting stripped of water, milk, ping pong balls, crochet sets and digital micrometers.

Is this the end, my friend?

not even proper ****ing snowed and already a bunch of crashes. Imagine the carnage if the east get a proper dumping. All because idiots dont know how to drive in the snow or fog.

Didnt hear too many accidents around the west when people were on untreated roads a few weeks back and the above crashes are on main fecking roads.

I understand the need to warn people but christ its OTT.

We are senior citizens , neither of us want to risk slipping or falling . So we got a few extra litres of milk and extra bread yesterday . It was to keep us safe and warm and not having to go out in the bitter cold . I am not really bothered by your disdain to be honest

Because I really meant people like you, obviously.

Isn't it grand for some that can stay inside from the elements, I'm not too far behind you but I'll be still heading out the door at 6 am whatever the weather.

Haven’t seen a touch of snow yet and hope it stays that way.too much hardship trying to travel in that.half the country can hardly drive on a good day with trying to steer and update their Facebook at the same time.im pure sick with fkrs who can’t use an indicator and a phone stuck to their jaw with a big important head on them.
Pull in to fcuk and take the call or stay off the road and have some consideration for other people for once in your selfish life.

Pressure.

Make them now and if no school they could eat them at home at lunch time sure or else feed it to birds ðŸ¦…

The snow looks lovely, but it's slippy!

It is indeed ! For long enough I battled all elements to get into work at 6 am or 10 pm at night . So I am comfortable buying a few extra loaves and fishes to keep warm and safe

They'll still be lunches, and can be eaten at home tomorrow?

Have you seen the forecast at all?

It's not hype. No heavy snow forecast for today at all. There may well be some tonight.

Worst of the snow is expected on Thursday.

Why people are expecting snow during the day today and then dismiss as it as hype when the non-forecasted snow does not materialise is beyond me.

Childminder feeds them otherwise. 10 mins of extra evening chill time. Original post in jest (kinda)

Thank god there's people on here who actually share my opinion. On the proper weather forum it was full of delusional idiots worrying.

You could always buy bread on donedeal, €30 for a small sliced pan.

Anyone who is "panic" buying is an idiot.
Stopped in to tesco this afternoon to get fresh rolls for the kids lunches and it's like armageddon. It's a couple of days of snow.
If you are stuck in the house for a day or 2 I'm sure you could survive on what's in the cupboards and the fridge. Who makes their dinner and thinks "ahhh, I've no bread to have with my potatoes and vegetables".
Some fool on the radio earlier buying 12 loaves of bread for a house with 2 people in it...dope.

How long would a bag of firewood last, while using a fire to heat a small room with mediocre insulation? (The bags they sell in lids, in case there is variation in size)

The power has gone here a couple of times when the weather is bad. We’ve a newborn so it is particularly important we can keep at least one room warm enough if the power goes.
