They're not afraid of the snow. They're afraid of injuring themselves or others because of the hazardous conditions. You're clearly the eejit.

nice one

See, now THIS is snow! This is what I'm talking about, not that crappy Atlantic slop.

16 cm at Casement, 5 cm at Dublin Airport. Around 8 cm for me in Celbridge. Perfect dry snow. No problems driving on it at the moment but could people please clean their cars properly, rooves, lights and all?

in Castlemartyr, cork- still snowing and quite a lot of snow on the ground

Eeeek snowing in Cork City again, and very heavy snow in Rathcormac according to a work colleague.

And the buses are still running it seems. Are at least I think I saw a bus running.

A nice dusting in Galway city and it’s getting heavier.
An unexpected surprise

Pretzill · 28-02-2018 09:23AM

First time on a snow thread this year I can say - sunny and spring like in south Sligo.

Enjoying all the wintry pics - be safe if you're travelling.

South Sligo
In springtime.

Light snow now in D7 again.

Blizzard much heavier in Galway, snow landed. There isn't even a warning for here is there? Worried if we leave we will find it difficult to get home this evening, also live on steep hill.

JCX BXC · 28-02-2018 09:25AM

Still lightly snowing in West Clare, nice covering, but not a patch on some of ye! Lots of drifting leaving interesting patterns on roads and driveways.

Looks like it'll stop here soon. More to come no doubt.

yep heavy blizzard now

6cm and steady stream of showers here in north Meath/Cavan border. Very little activity on the roads so guessing most places pulled the plug for today.

Very heavy snow falling in Douglas, Cork right now. Thick coating on the ground, must schools in the area closed

wakka12 · 28-02-2018 09:27AM

Blowing snow looks spectacular

Paully D · 28-02-2018 09:28AM

Sun shining in the south-east now :eek:

Yeah, well to be fair I flew into work - the roads are fine in the city....at least, they were, not sure about later

A bit of downhill slalom ?

Blizzard in Galway never forecast this

SleetAndSnow · 28-02-2018 09:30AM

This shower in cork city is really heavy. A lot of schools closed here (except mine ofc.. going in late though). All three narksbfrok cars are gone and it's still snowing

Fine. In 24hrs and 48hrs I'll reply and it'll still have been an overblown warning that was never in the league of a red alert.

I think you mean it doesn’t meet your criteria to be a red warning or your interpretation of a red warning or what it should be? Which is another argument.
However it does currently meet the outset criteria, just not your criteria.
