#Sneachta! People are going stone mad for the snow this weekend

Did it even snow out your way if you didn't post it on Twitter?

We'll say it once, we'll say it again - Twitter is always at its best during a major event. Whether it's All-Ireland Sunday, the Eurovision final or The Toy Show; when a major event is happening, Twitter is the place to be. And that was proven this weekend when parts of the country woke to find cars, clotheslines and even pets dusted with snow. Yes, the #Sneachta hashtag made a welcomed return this weekend as our newsfeeds were riddled with pictures of - you guessed it - snow! From a light drizzle to the thick blanket, it seems like no locality was left without their own snow update.

The Stannix 'Widow's Home' Almshouses in Thurles getting a pelt of snow. Built in 1889 and recently acquired by Thurles Lions Club who intended to give it a €3.5m face-lift https://t.co/w7Ql9mWIvD #tipperary #ireland #sneachta #oldbuilding pic.twitter.com/4viXaTpymJ
