Severe Weather Snow / Ice Weds 28 FEB ( Onwards ) READ MOD NOTE POST#1

MOD NOTE

This is a busy thread and as a result the Mod Team will be taking a zero Tolerance approach to trolling, flaming and personal abuse.

Don’t say you weren’t warned!!

And please don’t feed - report & let the Mod team deal with Troublesome Posters/Trolls

Time to start a new thread as the other one reaches its capacity!

I'm sure kermit.de.frog will add a forecast and keep it updated for us.

So to kick it off a few mouth watering charts of the snow and cold potential over the coming days, stay safe.

Looking very windy going into Thurs night and look at those windchill readings!

In my area, the Gardai are going around the pubs telling them to close. No joke. This has no legal standing. If a pub wants to open and punters want to be in there. So be it. But what I witnessed was more like Marshall law than a weather alert.

What area is this?

Who is Marshall by the way and what laws does he/she have?

Maybe you mean Martial Law?

Maybe gardai are just advising as staff and punters may not be able to get home come normal civilian law closing time.

Farmers have a legitimate reason for being there. And tend to be self reliant. So if they need help, so be it.

The guys in BMW x5s with summer tyres are more the issue.

Shout out to the wicklow massive who are still waiting for this "snow" that everyone else is talking about.

The beast wanted nothing to do with us, but hopefully Emma has some space left in her heart.

Be careful what you wish for !!
I’m up the coast , south side of Drogheda and I’ll swop with you . Sick of this , snowing almost all day long, lots of snow drifts here and that’s before Emma , I want this to be over already .

I'm really struggling to believe how little snow I've got compared to seemingly the rest of the country. Hardly 2-3 cm here in South Tipp. Hopefully tonight/tomorrow makes up for it, as the models are showing that it should.

Stranded German tourists in Dublin can't believe that the Country is shut down they said the get huge amounts of snow in Germany and the transport system keeps going and business open

Just tell them we don't get huge amounts of snow. The comparison with other winter ready countries is ridiculous at this stage.

Gerry ran away ! simples

Gerry is at home on a day off I suspect. I would say he's pacing up and down the kitchen floor waiting for the call which most likely won't happen. Ah poor Gerry left out in the cold pardon the pun.

There weren't 100km/h winds causing blizzard conditions in 2010. It was a protracted cold spell, but mostly calm.

Surely there will be no more in Athlone ? It's coming down non stop.

What you witnessed was still more like a weather alert than Martial Law.

Do people just not care what words mean anymore?

Gusts here would knock an average sized person off their feet so red alert totally warranted.

DOCARCH

Heavy snow being reported at the moment at St Mary's, on Scilly Isles. Must be a particularly rare event for them.

I have to agree. In Dublin 8 and it's non stop all day. Was nice for a while but at this stage I'm getting a little bit of cabin fever.

Skedaddle

I get the definite impression that Cork City is warming up. The snow's thawing all over the place around the hills.

Anyone know how bad the roads are in north county Dublin at he moment? A relative is stuck in Sutton without transport, needs to get to Swords.

And they will be the first to call the Gardai when they are stranded in 3/4hrs.... some people just love to to the opposite of what is advised!

Same so far. I think it's due to the easterly direction and the effect if being in the lee of the Comeraghs. Plenty snow north of us and to the south on the Lismore side of the Knockmealdowns.

No idea, but if they have shelter they need to stay. The message of Leo Varadkar was very clear - stay home or indoors after 4pm.

How did your relative not get that message?
