GALLERY: Drifts, diggers, family fun, blocked roads and snowmen -Kildare takes Storm Emma in its stride

Photos sent to the Leinster Leader show county is coping

You took Storm Emma as you found her. 

If you were 10, you were in heaven. No school and more snow that your wildest dreams. 

If you were an ambulance driver, it was busy and treacherous, but with a little help and a lot of caution, you managed. If you drove a digger or a 4x4 vehicle of any description you had a busy day

And if you were the Queen of the Land, you were photographed up to your waste in a drift!

Below, Dag Weld's Cross was cleared this morning, possibly by one of the many locals with tractors or diggers who could do so.
