Snow-vember: Winter arrives ...

We’ve only just reached the ‘official’ start of winter and already the snow has arrived and fears of a very chilly winter are growing.

A number of counties awoke on Nov 1 to sprinklings of the white stuff.

Snow was reported early yesterday morning in Glenville and Mallow in Cork. Meelin and Doneraile in North Cork received a dusting while Blarney also experienced some snow. Parts of Limerick were also affected.
