ON the subject of “fake news” I was prepared for arctic conditions on Thursday morning as RTÉ reported that the National Emergency Co-ordination Group had met and that local authorities in affected areas were activating their severe weather plans. For what, you may wonder?
As it turns out, an expected four to five centimetres of snow fell in some parts of the country and a cold snap is expected to last until yesterday (Friday). Not exactly deep snow until Easter. What must people from Eastern Europe, where even the sea is frozen, make of our weather warnings?
