KILKENNY has come to a near standstill following a heavy fall of snow late on Wednesday evening.
The county is now covered in a blanket of snow which, allied to icy conditions, is now making travel treacherous.
People are being urged to make vital journeys only by car or indeed on foot.
A call has also gone out to families to check on elderly or ill neighbours who may be living alone.
