they may end up with that testing dead ground they get down there sometimes.... that can throw up some right surprises.

The covers may protect the turf from softening or from freezing, but they also stop the ground from drying out. Not alot gets in or out. Someone ought to make use of the army and send them to Cheltenham incase the covers need to come out quickly. They wouldn't be making the best use of themselves since driving green godess's.

The snow has resulted in flight delays at Dublin Airport and customers have been urged to check their flight times before going to the airport.

It comes as motorists were being urged to drive with extreme care today after Met Eireann issued a weather warning for twelve counties.

Spokesperson for the DAA, Siobhan Moore, said: "We have had heavy snowfalls here at Dublin Airport which resulted in the main runway becoming contaminated with snow.

"Once a friction test is carried out, and if it is deemed to be unreliable, then we must go out and sweep the runway and clear it of the snow that has fallen.

"That took about 30 minutes, flights operations were suspended during that time. Unfortunatley that does have a knock-on effect on the sdchedules so some flights have been affected as a result of that."

Up to eight centimetres of snow is expected to fall in Dublin, Carlow, Kildare, Kilkenny, Laois, Louth, Wexford, Wicklow, Meath, Donegal, Mayo, Cork, Kerry, Tipperary and Waterford.

Dozens of crashes have already been reported on the roads.

There is a very strong wind blowing here at the moment. Will only serve to help the ground dry up. No rain scheduled today. It wont be the bog that some are expecting.
