#Sneachta: Twitter reacts to the coming of The Beast from the East
Us Irish don't really cope well with the extreme weather, now do we? (Hurricane Ophelia, we're looking at you)
As the country braces itself for heavy snowfall, freezing temperatures and treacherous conditions, courtesy of The Beast from the East, the Twitter folk of Ireland have done what they do best – made a complete joke out of the whole situation.
We're a gas bunch altogether!
The anticipation is palpable.
Fewer things more alive than a teachers’ WhatsApp group the hour before the #snowday email comes through. #sneachta #BeastFromTheEast

Same, Grainne. Same.
I don’t want to sound ungrateful but I was expecting a lot more snow. #sneachta
