And?

That accident could happen on a normal winters night.

Yep. But of course the selfish cunt that went out driving in a status red during a stay indoors warning was a BMW driver

Heard Meath and North Kildare got a serious fall alright mickee. Will the semi conductor business grind to a halt today?

After disappointment when waking, snowfall gradually getting heavier this morning in mid central interior east Limerick.:snowflake:

Roads were brutal to be honest, fair fucks to the taxi man

Snowing quite steadily in pastoral Limerick, as I presume it has been for most of the night.

Not a puff of wind though. I’ve just made toast.

Up to yesterday a lot of them were top notch judges and jurors. Now they’re expert meteorologists

yes, ground to a halt yesterday allright
i believe a skeleton emergency response team was gotten in there via 4x4 trucks that they have on standby for an event like this, these lads would be trained fire men and the likes as you cant just leave a site like that sit idle and unmanned… the power glitch wednesday night was a cunt , BU line in maynooth was down when the clontarf supply bumped, usually id be in all over that but,
im too old for all this tho
id imagine a few eager indian semi conductor engineers would be attempting to drive to the site this morning…
usually you can idle these places in a planned shutdown, the sudden nature of it will obviosulu cause manufacturing issues but stuff like hazardous exhaust emissions and waste disposal, chemical delivery all needs to be factored in
