  • Ireland once again gets hit by snow storms.
    The winter conditions caused havoc for drivers but fun times in the snow for many children whose schools had closed.
    Chaotic driving conditions affected bus services, and flights in and out of Dublin airport were cancelled or delayed.
    An RTÉ News report broadcast on 16 January 1985. The reporter is Michelle McCaughren.

    The St. Patrick's weekend in 1979 was pretty bad too. It started on the Friday and continued much of the weekend that is one St. Patrick's weekend I won't forget anytime soon.

    Any footage of traffic from the seventies or eighties always features at least two Fiat 131 Supermirafiori's.

    het lijkt mij dat in 1985 alle verkeer enz. nog redelijk ordelijk verloopt ..
    in 2023 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ is er veel meer echte chaos ..

    That wasn't even half as bad as the snow of 1982 or 2018

      There was no bad snow in 2019. Late 2010, with the big freeze and the beast from the east in March 2018.

      @Alan Bird the snow of late 2009 always seems to be forgotten, and it continued on for some time. Late 2010 seemed to go on forever as the snow had pretty much put the country on pause.
