Currently sitting on a train and the woman next to me is sniffing. Awful loud big hucking sniffs, you know the type that you hear wet phlegm being pulled up the nose which she then audibly swallows

A tissue doesn't sound adequate.
Imagine the blow
Noooo!
Horrible!

Oh yuck! How awful

YANBU, it is entirely acceptable to offer a tissue in those circumstances.

OMG, I was just about to offer it to her when she pulled out a pack of tissues! Dabbed at her nose and is continuing to sniff. WTF do people do this?!

Embarrassed to blow?
Snot travelling down the nose and afraid not to be be able to mop up properly.
