Snow day!
Some counties woke up to snow this morning and we’re not just talking small flakes that didn’t stick. The place was covered.
The worse affected counties appear to have been Cork, Limerick, Clare and in the midlands around Portlaoise. The hashtag ‘sneachta’ has been trending all morning with people sharing images of their local towns covered in snow.
This back garden in Portlaoise, sent to us by Noelle, is just waiting for a snowman to be built.
Here are some other photos from around the country.
