The UK may be known for snowvereacting, but Ireland is contending with some serious weather, to the point where the whole country was on red alert on Thursday.

The “Beast from the East” is no joke at Dublin airport. Their official Twitter account put out this footage Thursday of the view from inside the terminal.

So this is what a ‘Red Alert for heavy snowfall’ actually looks like @DublinAirport. We’ll have further updates in the morning. Stay safe#StormEmma #BeastFromTheEast #Snow pic.twitter.com/ENajr7xaFX

If ever you need a reason not drive in snowy conditions unless it’s absolutely necessary, just remind yourself of the clip above.

Meanwhile, the reaction of the guy in the car that’s filming pretty much says it all. Read more…

Look, here’s an acrobatic feline attempting to catch a snowball in glorious slow motion.

You know those disaster movies where it’s blue sky one minute, hellish storm clouds the next?

Well that was pretty much what happened in London on Tuesday.

Thing have been cold in the UK for a few days now, but the so-called “Beast from the East” well and truly slammed into Britain’s capital yesterday.

Just look at this nightmarish photo, taken from a police helicopter.

Okay guys we know it’s snowy out there and everything, but you’re clutching at straws now.

Londoners (and Southerners in general) are known for losing all composure at the sight of a few snowflakes. Said snowflakes have been arriving en masse courtesy of the “Beast from the East,” in which cold winds from Siberia are pushing a frigid air mass westward into Central Europe and the UK.

One particular Londoner took the disproportionate snow-hype to new levels.
