Who stole all the work blankets?
It’s bloody freezing, and it’s staying like that for a few days. Sorry everyone.
Motorists have been told to be cautious on the roads as snow and ice is expected to blanket the country until Wednesday at the earliest.
Temperatures dropped as low as -2 overnight as a cold front from Canada made its way across the Atlantic.
Warmer temperatures are expected towards the weekend, with the cold weather returning next week.
“It’s a March of many weathers. It’s meant to be the start of spring on Sunday but the weather doesn’t always start on cue. The weather will continue with wintry feel more than anything,” forecaster Pat Clarke told The Irish Times.
Snow is covering roads in Carlow, Longford, Mayo and Cork City, according to AA Roadwatch, while slushy road conditions have been reported in Ennis, Co. Clare and in Portlaoise.
Icy conditions have been reported in Donegal, while roads around Cavan town are said to be treacherous.
Galway, Westmeath, Kerry, Monaghan and Dublin have all seen snowfall too.
