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?

Am I the only one that kinda fancies that Siobhan weather woman on RTE?

This must be like their pulitzer moment.

TV3's weather woman yesterday would have gave a snowman an erection.

Dunnes closing should be a sign this is going to be bad. Those whores would chain their staff to the tills

They'll probably use this weather to promote the continuing use of zero hour contracts.

Well my bar is insisting we open throughout the day again today and after damaging my car driving in yesterday which will cost more than the wage to fix I refused to do my 7pm to closing shift. Forsee a cut to my hours in my future but don't care. Really bad form at this point imo. Anyone venturing to the pub especially in less urban areas remember the guy or gal behind the taps might have further to travel to get home after you all leave.

Complete non even here in Dublin 14.

That's bad form, on the other hand could you give me a hot one.

So you want the bus drivers to risk life for others do you ? The emergency services are wonderful and would not appreciate you recommending taking risks and adding their huge workload

Risk life?
Sure, don't get up in the morning if you can't handle a bit of risk. All this hyperbolic nonsense over a couple of inches of snow.

Somehow the bus driver got a grip... you should too.

Pathetic little snow falls here in D16. The laughable overkill from people and the media is a national embarrassment.

Good to see you were safely able to travel from D16 to D14

Well if that's true, which I don't think it is, it only proves the point somewhat no? As in he/she is not used to driving in those conditions. Yes we know you'd be better but then how do you account for the near poor visibility and then the absolute plonker doing a u-turn in the middle of the road. Even if you do let the pro drivers out there, you can't account for other idiots driving around unnecessarily like our very own skier in this thread.

Meh. Some lad on the wireless now saying 8pm before we see anything, it was 4pm at lunchtime :pac:

Looking outside if anything the snow is beginning to thaw.

Speed had very little to do with it. If you brake in those conditions at 50kph or 10kph the results will be similar. You will skid out of control.

No warning was for anywhere at 16:00 except the S.E. coast.

Just wear a wooly hat if you're that cold they are good for protecting the ears in the cold.

Does anyone else find that it's not that cold with the snow? I have been colder without the snow.

Snow only forms within a certain temp range, it can be too cold to snow as the air will be too dry.

Dublin airport is a disgrace, it's as if they didn't realise people could end up "trapped" there.

My old country Ma says "it's too cold for snow" & she's usually right.

So why is everything closed today?

Because lots of roads are not safe to drive on and there is no public transport.

It's called foresight.
