A man has shared a brilliant hack for defrosting your car windows quickly in the morning in time for Met Eireann’s latest weather warning as snow arrives.
The cold and dark winter mornings are here, and if you're late for work, the last thing you need is to go outside and see that the car windows are frozen over.
Most people will opt to head inside to grab a basin of warm water to throw over the windows, only for it to end up soaking your clothes before the commute.

However thanks to one TikTokker, @aketton, you no longer have to worry about such an outcome.
He shared an alternative way to defrost your car windows this winter coining it his "cheeky morning hack".
In the short clip, he fills a plastic bag with warm water and slides it across the ice until it melts.
Alongside his video, the viral TikTok star wrote: "Cheeky morning hack for de-icing the car. Just fill a bag with warm water, and go around all the windows and have fun sliding it about.
“Saves you going backwards and forwards to the house with a jug of water."
People have been hailing the trick with one user writing: “Tried it, loved it, will recommend my man.”
Another wrote: “This is genius, trying it next time.”
However others weren’t as convinced by the hack as one person queried: “Why would you not just press the little magic button inside the car to defrost?”
Another wrote: “...Yeah or buy a de-icing spray?”
