Snowfalls stop Dublin - Benedetta

Dublin under the snow

The snow has finally arrived and as it was thought, it has stopped Ireland's capital as well as the rest of country.

It is causing lots of problems to travellers because Aer Lingus is cancelling almost a half of its flights, that means 200 flights per day!

Also commuters who usually travel by public transport are finding problems because buses are not running due to the inaccessible streets.

But the problem that interests the families the most is absolutely the closing or not-closing of schools. Lots of schools have already closed but the majority of them do not know yet what to do. The problem is that there are too many students that are taking exams at the moment. Blogs are collecting different opinions about this: there are students who want schools to be closed and others who, after studying hard, absolutely want them to keep open.

The situation is not improving, tonight we expect further snowfall.

Keep your fingers crossed!
