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?

Most them are buying cans etc I'd imagine.

But if you're only in Ireland ten years that means you're foreign. And you should be laughing at us.

This doesn't compute with the stories on here of Canadians, Poles and Mexicans splitting their sides at thick old Paddy.

The Poles can stop laughing because 21 homeless people died there in the last three days . At least we got our into shelter and the red warnings may well have saved lives . I for one am very grateful for the pre warnings and my family is safe and warm and vital medication stocked in the fridge .

Thanks to all emergency services and hospital staff who are amazing .

Remember to shovel it away from doors to your house, unless you want flooded halls when it thaws.

heh! Yes I just did mine when I realised it was about a foot deep against both doors. The snow fall is more substantial now than at any point since this began (Waterford, where we're not used to this sort of thing)

I wonder are those posters that keep mentioning a curfew really on release from prison and have an electronic tag. It's a court imposed curfew on them.

Went to bed with feck all snow sticking but fully aware that it was yet to come.

Woke up this morning in essentially an igloo. Snow is as at least high as my rib-cage in places, and packed high across the entire roof. Worryingly compacted on my (perspex) conservatory roof too which looks to be heaving under the pressure.

Not a hope of leaving the house for a while.

It's not bad if the Centra is in your estate. If anything it's a nice walk, if you keep it short.

been in ireland over 10 years but fck me, i thought it will be few inches at best and fluff will melt in a day or two, just to be trapped two feet of snow in the estate, fun wears of fast to realize how messed up things can get two power outages in last 24hrs, impossible to leave estates and roads lethal to be on, and this amount will take forever to clear not to mention slush it will create afterwards. theres no possible way to prepare for such crap, just to sit it out.

I asked earlier in the thread and got no answer. Could you provide a link to any sort of CURFEW in Ireland in 2018. Thanks.

Less of the tough questions!

Yeah it kinda did. Maybe not nationwide, but certainly in some counties. Just because it's not dangerous where you are doesn't mean it isn't elsewhere. Where I am in Dublin, close to city centre, it's very difficult to get anywhere. The roads and pavements are covered in ice and are slippery as fùck. I've seen people fall on their back and hit their head because of the ice. Black ice at that. I even fell and fùcked up my arm on my way to the shop to get food.

Still the snow has given me two days off work so I'm happy lol

I was wrong. I admit it. I thought it was going to be a big non event. However, I woke up this morning to about a foot of snow. Back garden looks lile Val d'Isere.

Now, did it require a nationwide shut down, panic buying, Government Emergency War Rooms etc?

Nah, dont think so. Its only snow. Its not napalm.

I think the Government have done really well here to be honest. I was skeptical this would amount to much but because of the frequency and consistency of the warnings I went out and stocked up (didn't panic buy - I don't have a houseful of bread and milk but enough to get by for 2-3 days).

I, and many more like me, can't get too far outside the door today.
