I have a feeling that it will be a reverse white Christmas this year with areas missing out last year getting some snow this year. I think that a SE wind will bring snow showers to inland areas of Wexford, Waterford, Wicklow, S Dublin, Carlow, Kilkenny, S Kildare, S Laois and E Tipperary.

Hi,

I have to say I know almost nothing about weather forecasting, or all them fancy maps and the such , but ye guys here have had my attention over the past couple of days, looking rather interesting to say the least for Christmas again eh?

I'm in Carlow and we had a light sprinkle on Christmas morning, but hey, more than I ever remember on a Christmas morning . But then there is that old tale that Carlow town is sheltered by the sourrounding moutain ranges and never gets a decent fall of snow. I think thats the case as its some what of a rarity around here.

Anyway, heres to a white Christmas, I'll keep my fingers crossed and keep an eye in here (and out the window of course)

Take care,

With an area of high pressure over the country on Xmas eve and Xmas Day...
White Xmas-extremely unlikely.

Yeah sorry to trample on your hopes but the possiblility of a white christmas is very low ... however if it sleet's on christmas (that can , i believe , be classed as a white christmas). Wouldn't mind it being one, oh well... Christmas tommorow.

Merry Christmas all!
