WE’RE a hardy lot.

And ex-pats in the North-East United States have had to put up with a massive snowfall this weekend, so much snow they even gave it a name – the Nemo Blizzard.

But it didn’t stop this lot enjoying the snow….and Donegal’s victory over Down in the Allianz National League match.

Kevin Friel from Fanad took a break from watching the game in Beverly, Boston to step outside for this pic (top).

Kevin says his town has been hit with 34 inches of snow and was watching the game with his sisters Nuala wright and Martina Hegarty.

This is the main street outside his home below.

Meanwhile in Glouchester,Massachusetts, Glenn Gallagher’s home literally has snow right up to the roof of his home.

But it didn’t stop the Killybegs man going outside to wave the Donegal flag below!

Daniel Smith from Keadue is pictured below in Sunnyside, Queens, New York. He has been living in the States for three years now – the last two in New York, after spending a year in Texas.  You can just see the Empire State Building in Manhattan in the background.

“I had just gotten off the phone with my brother, Matthew, who was in MacCumhail Park just before throw in when I took the photo.  The last Donegal match I was at was the Down match in the Ulster Final when I was at home on holiday last summer,” said Daniel.
