The weather is abnormal.
The council can only stockpile x amount of salt/grit, Y amount of trucks etc.

To have the resoucres to deal adeaute with freak weather Would be a waste of money.
Better just to accept it and deal with resoucres at hand.
If colder winters become the norm then socity and gov will have to adapt better.
having the adequate resources for freak weather is one thing,not having the money to get it is another.Roads all over County Cork are left in shocking condition due to no money being available to order the grit.When will they be safe enough to use again?Only one way to find out and thats to use them.By the way Cork has escaped most of the worst of the weather.Its worse for alot of places

the place is crazy at this stage,
Westside.
