Snow and other Wintry Stuff

Trogdor

Really confused now after looking at the radar it should be at least raining here but it's been dry for the last hour now

LoL

Thunder!

Snow is very sleety now but big flakes!

Pc off due to the frequency of the lightning

No lying snow but falling as I type.

Elessar

It was raining here in Swords near the airport during the night. No sign of snow :mad: :mad: :mad:

ninebeanrows

no snow here and no signs of any.. ho hum

looks good for the southeast though

The Hill Billy

Rain in Skerries at 6:15 & 4C.

CrowdedHouse

Heavy snow in Roscrea at the moment,ground covered

SpitfireIV

Still snowing away here, a nice sprinkling on the ground now

ninebeanrows

Yes indeed there is a nice feature headed that way.. south leinster and eastern parts of Munster could see a nice bit of snow. looks bad for northern leinster atm though.

ninebeanrows

Im pretay sure the snow gods do not like me..

But the weather sat and radar look like if it is cold enough southern leinster and easter munster could well see decent accumalations of snow.

Darwin

Reasonable snow shower in Mountrath at the moment, not accumulating though as it was preceded by a heavy rain shower this morning.

ninebeanrows

Very windy here with ENE gales..

The worst thing other than not seeing snow at all is having other people who live like 20 miles away having snow!!

Nice pic there;)

Don't know how things are going to shape up this evening tbh with regards to the irish sea but i would say Cork has more chance of seeing snow than me..

Infact Cork could be in a decent position if it is cold enough later this AM;)

lucernarian

Nothing here except wet ground. Bright enough skies to the north, cloudier to the south.

Nice Pictures - Lashing snow where I am at the moment (South Kilkenny) any ideas about Waterford city anyone? I am on a hill here you see. Ground is wet so not sticking much only on grass houses and in dry sopts.

Update : starting to stick now and come down heavy!!!!
Update Again: Ground is frozen now and snow is accumulating. Its amazing! Will take a pic (in low resolution for dial up users!! - living in the stone age lol)

arctictree

Showers on and off all night.

Light covering on the ground this morning. Blizzard conditions around 8am at 0.7 degrees.

Damn broadband has gone down so my weather station is out - hopefully it will be back up soon...

ONLY IN BLOODY IRELAND!! :mad: Woke up to grey ground and beautiful snow...In The Sky!Looked at radar asap and saw a huge huge lump just moving away from me, clouds to my south clearance to my north!I just want to apoligise to everybody living in or around the navan area,only when I live in a place does a large snowy blob pass right over head and it forgets its supposed to snow now.Congrats to Croppyboy and Crowded house nice pics!I hope it lasts for yous!

MetLuver

Looks like it's been raining most of the night here in Kilkenny City outskirts.

For the last half an hour though there has been quite a bit of sleet which has turned to snow for a few seconds at a time. So it IS trying!

Welcome onboard MetLuver, you picked a good time of the year to join, plenty of activity in here and LOTS of ups and downs....all part of the fun though.

Hopefully you'll get another chance this week to see some snow, I honestly wasnt expecting a thing, WeatherCheck was on here lastnight in an excited state saying that we'd get snow (I wasnt believing it...:p ), but see how wrong I was.

Anyway, stopped snowing here now, dark and overcast, spitting bits of rain/sleet with the most of the snow melted or reduced to slushy ice.

What a morning!

Its been snowing very heavy here in Waterford city for the past hour or so, unfortunately its not sticking though, due to very wet ground.

Air temp is 2.5c

Must have bypassed Kilkenny altogether!
Seems to have snowed in Carlow, Tipp and Waterford.

Snowed here for about an hour, snow stuck, probably half an inch or so.

Threatening to snow more.

MetLuver

Thanks CroppyBoy!!Great to be here.Joined in sept,round time of Gordon. Sorry to hear your snow is melting maybe later in week. Tues/Weds looks interesting:)

Snow has started falling in North County Cork (near Mallow) about 30 minutes ago, starting to build up on the ground although I doubt it will last

Snowbie

Well done to all who got snow,1mm of something fell last night dunno what tbh but conditions where nearly right before i left.Listening to WC we appeared to get rain but i couldnt see settling snow here near the coast anyhow.For all people inland who got the snow you can thank the sst temp for being high enough to build and intensify the showers to push well inland on that NE wind where you would have the lower temps,well i can blame it for no snow here and keeping the temps up.
