Villain · 03-03-2006 4:11pm

My Last post before I leave Maynooth was written saying I haven't got any then I look outside and............... ITS SNOWING, lightly but snowing

Villain · 03-03-2006 4:12pm

I'll report back about 5 when I'm in Carlow, hope that snow follows me home

LookingFor · 03-03-2006 4:12pm

Starting in D15. Light at the moment.

SpitfireIV · 03-03-2006 4:13pm

That band has really made a dive SE, closing in on Dublin now!

sparticus · 03-03-2006 4:14pm

Stopped in Roscommon:(

hoody · 03-03-2006 4:17pm

Any possibility of seeing some of the white stuff in (at the moment anyway) sunny Limerick? Have a coupla mates heading back towards Donegal tonight and they've heard all sorts of rumours about road closures up that way, yet so far we've only had a hard frost, no precip. unfortunately

Snowbie · 03-03-2006 4:18pm

Started snowing at last in d13,getting heavier now,not sticking temp 3.6

LookingFor · 03-03-2006 4:19pm

Getting heavier, though flakes are small. What's nice about this shower though, is that it's totally grey out, as opposed to the showers in the sun we had earlier in the week

Dotsie~tmp · 03-03-2006 4:21pm

Looks good for Wicklow mountains. Doubt we will see anything but a small few more showers this year in Dublin though.

Exactly,looks wintry for a change

Snowbie · 03-03-2006 4:27pm

sparticus · 03-03-2006 4:27pm

Gonzo · 03-03-2006 4:27pm

It even stuck at all?

It's so light here, unfortunately. And very fine-grained.

edit - though gonzo gives me hope

Dunshaughlin isn't a million miles away:rolleyes:

edit 2 - maybe getting heavier now..

03-03-2006 4:30pm

Staring off now in clondlakin just beside casement,only light tho!

ciaran76 · 03-03-2006 4:34pm

Quite heavy now in Swords but not sticking

Snowbie · 03-03-2006 4:35pm

It was heavy for ten mins stuck mostly roofs garden cars etc not on roads,great pic GONZO maybe this is due for us in DUBLIN SOON
Temp now 1.9 and dropping fast

Gonzo · 03-03-2006 4:40pm

think im coming to the end of hte snow band now.. at most about 40 minutes of snow, starting to brighten up and snow geting lighter again.

these were taken 15 minutes ago at the peak.

Snowbie · 03-03-2006 4:43pm

just light snow now to near moderate,not sticking temp 1.6

Gonzo · 03-03-2006 4:44pm

cloud breaking here now, the sun will be back soon

LookingFor · 03-03-2006 4:47pm

Gotten *quite* heavier here, visibility has dropped a lot in the last few mins. I don't think it's enough to stick though.

edit - heavier still! trying hard to stick..but i think it's that "temporary" sticking, just because it's so heavy

Endurance Man · 03-03-2006 4:49pm

How reliable are those precipitation charts ? It looks as though everywhere will at least see some snow , even if here near the South Coast it'll be fairly light .

LookingFor · 03-03-2006 4:59pm

Stronger than ever now! Very heavy, and very big flakes!

Sticking much better too, but once it stops I'm sure it'll be gone very quickly..

Snowbie · 03-03-2006 5:02pm

belting down in d13 too no sign of it sticking yet temp1.2

03-03-2006 5:05pm

Sticking here and belting down,bring it on!

LookingFor · 03-03-2006 5:05pm

Awww..just when it was really kicking off, it goes all light and fine again

Still, there's maybe enough for the kids to throw around..a little bit..

fatherdougalmag · 03-03-2006 5:06pm

Maybe people should post their locations as they post conditions. Here in Dub SW it started off quite dandruffy and is now going full tilt. No sticky sticky though. At least, not yet.

Bring on the snow
