As Storm Emma lands in Ireland, waves of panic ripple throughout the country. Many colleges, schools and businesses have shut due to the orange and red status warnings issues by Met Éireann in the early hours of this morning. There have been many disruptions this morning with the Luas, Dublin Bus, Bus Eireann, Iarnród Éireann and Dublin Airport this morning due to the extreme snowfall last night.
All companies were working to the best of their ability this morning to get their routes back up and running as normal. Some flights were cancelled in Dublin Airport this morning, but runways are clear again. You can check live updates for Dublin Airport here, and here. It is also advised that you check with the airline directly for information also. Ryanair updates can be found here and Aer Lingus updates can be found here.
Our runway & taxiways are now clear for flight operations to resume @DublinAirport #beastfromtheeast #stormemma #snow
