It's very cold outside, and it's going to be freezing tonight

Met Éireann said that early frost should clear to a bright day with some blustery northwest winds.

IT WILL BE a cold, bright and blustery day after the widespread rains of yesterday.

Met Éireann said that early frost should clear to a bright day with some blustery northwest winds.

As the morning progresses the rain will return with heavy and locally thundery showers, with some turning wintery – especially over northern and northwestern areas.

Showers will clear mostly over Munster and Leinster later today.

The night will bring very cold conditions. Frost will set in soon after dark and become severe as the night progresses.

There will be icy roads with some clear spells, but showers also.

Lowest temperatures will be 0 to -3 degrees.

Cold conditions will persist over the weekend, with frost and ice widespread.

    Problem with China is they don’t tolerate free speech either.

    There has been conflict in this regions between the Chinese government and Islamists for years, people are regularly getting killed (as in, every few weeks). Why only report it now?

    Because media outlets have a finite amount of time and space and have to partly reflect the interests of their readership, viewership or listenership. Uighur unrest is generally not newsworthy for small Irish publications. With the events of last week in France and Nigeria, it’s a lot more newsworthy.

    The news isn’t a list of everything that happens on the planet, nor is it necessarily a ranked list of death tolls. The media has to weigh what thinks will resonate with an audience. By necessity, that requires a degree of filtering.

    Dunno about that, Genghis Khan slaughtered a fair few of them. 1.2 million in one city alone. The sacking of Urgench.

    At the same time the Normans were invading Ireland and bringing their Christian values with them. Or were they, was it purely about greed and conquest. I suppose the first homo sapien to emerge from the horn of Africa and dream about world conquest is the money king.

    How refreshing to see the hackneyed use of quotations with the term “terrorist” whenever something like this happens in China.
