THE BEAST from the East has briefly returned it seems.
Following a weather warning from Met Éireann yesterday due to last until Monday morning at 9 am, the forecast was pretty accurate as most parts of Ireland are blinded by snow this morning.
Those who may be nursing a post-St. Patrick's Day hangover may be delighted or disgusted with the snow, meaning you have extra excuse to sleep in - but that also means you won't be able to get your well-deserved breakfast roll to soothe that headache.
Regardless of your plans today, the snowfall certainly is pretty and it's not often we get a bit of sneachta so we may as well relish it while it lasts.
The pictures of it are surely something to cherish, making Ireland even prettier than it already is.
Heavy snow in Mountmellick last night and still bucketing down! ⛄️ ❄️ @LaoisNews @CarlowWeather @deric_hartigan #SonOfTheBeast #sneachta pic.twitter.com/Rti5wIj5DN
