    God, can you remember weather being this bad for so long? I just looked at the Shannon Airport data there on Met.ie. For the whole of December 2023, it rained every day except the 4th and 15th.

    We get very mild seasons here especially winter weather when you stop and think of the big variations in temperature from winter to summer in large parts of Europe

    Over cast morning here and the smell of slurry in the air. Yesterday seemed like the first day of spring here. Lots of birds chirping away in the ditches too

    Does Met Eireann think the country is stupid or what is the deal. Just heard the weather, we have a yellow weather warning for ice & low temperatures, they are also telling us that there could be animal welfare issues. What we actually have is January (Irish winter) weather we get it every year. Its perfectly normal and people should be well used of it and know exactly what needs to be done without weather warnings.

    Couldn't agree more. I think this Yellow/Orange/red warning thing is total nonsense.

    If 'Red' weather is on the way, that's fine. Issue a warning. Be in wind, rain or heat. Whatever. But as you say, 'yellow' is effectively just slightly worse than normal weather for the time of year.

    It's just a yellow warning, it just gives people the heads up to be prepared. Be that putting on heaters over pumps, top up antifreeze, leave a tap running to water troughs etc. The weather lately has been mild so people might not be ready for a cold snap. Dont see why you are so triggered by it.

    As long as I can remember the weather took a dive after Christmas, the TV cameras rolled into Limerick Regional Hospital for footage of patients on trolleys in the corridors. No sign of the TV cameras this January!!!
