Coleraine is better

Much drier.

Average high of 18C in the warmest month! That is absolutely horrendous! I'd even take northern Scotland over that.

Ugh you know what stuff it i could not give two cruds what some person 3000 miles away thinks about what ive seen and what ive not seen. We can have some pretty bad storms. The north atlantic can bring a punch often from greenland. So do not dare say "in northern ireland yeah right". As if youd have two fannys about what it does here. Dont give me that bull****.

Its snowier here than you think love. You only have to ask the baby booms kids about that.
Once again, pot meet kettle.

Any pictures or sources to support your claim, sweetheart?

The only place in Northern Ireland to have seen 2 feet of snow recently will be the highest hills, and even then you're pushing it. 15 feet drifts are just implausible, not even the North Yorkshire Moors have seen such drifting recently, and they, along with the Yorkshire Dales, had over a metre of snow in 2010.

The hills on Banks Peninsula near Christchurch had drifts of up to 6 metres/20 ft in the big snow of 1992, at altitudes of between 550 -850 metres/1600-2500 ft.

How am I pushing it to see 2 feet of snow? Catch yourself on. It wasn't even this year either.

How does Banbridge compare climatically with Coleraine? They're both on the river Bann I think? (obviously one of them is ...)
