Yup, the New York Blizzard, also known as the Blizzard 06 is on it’s way to lovely old Ireland. Except, we’re not going to be getting the 30 odd inches of snow that they did on the North East coast of the US, oh no, we’re getting it in the form of wind and rain!! One of the best snow-storms ever in the history of the US has arrived here as a regular old Irish winter storm!!

On saying that, it’s probably just as well it didn’t come here as snow. A sprinkling of snow on the ground in Ireland, and the whole country comes to a standstill, 2 foot of snow and there would be no work done for about a month I reckon!!
