Ireland’s Status Red weather warning has now been downgraded, but the roads are still pretty dangerous today.
Gardai have advised the public not to leave the house unless it’s absolutely necessary.
With that in mind, here are some ideas to help you pass the time…
1. Build a fort
A snow day is the perfect excuse to act like a kid. Grab some blankets and chairs and snuggle up!
2. Read a good book
Turn off Netflix and get through that novel you’ve been meaning to finish. You’ll be glad you did.
3. Cook a fancy meal
You know those recipes that you really want to try but you know they’ll take forever? Now is the time – just make sure you get to the shop before everything is gone.
4. Play a board game
A great way to spend some quality time with your flatmates or family. Just hope it doesn’t end in tears.
5. Catch up on TV Shows
Still haven’t watched The Good Place or Black Mirror? Now’s your chance.
6. Get creative
This is a great chance to make a card for an upcoming birthday, do some sketches or write a short story.
7. Discover some new music
It’s easy to get stuck in a rut, so why not make some playlists with new artists you haven’t listened to before?
8. Learn a new skill
Always wanted to learn how to knit, or speak Spanish? There are loads of how-to videos online, and Duolingo is great for languages.
9. Have a dance party
Pum up the jam and burn some calories – or learn a choreographed routine a la Ross and Monica.
10. Have a fashion show
Sort out your closet by trying on all your clothes. Do they still fit you? Do you ever wear them? If not, put them in a bag for charity.
11. Set up a home spa
Have a long, luxurious bath, put on a face mask and relax. You deserve it.
