Been there donkey years (before the new website)

Snowline from the 1mm overnight is above 200m, I'd say nearer 250m. Need binoculars to actually see it.

Currently 3C, negative DP.

Theres snow here almost down to coolgreany and quite a bit of it.
I couldnt see croghan or anything really untill just now as they were shrouded in cloud.
The snowline is in fact about 300 feet (not metres) asl.
It looks very white above that line.

I still reckon early evening today till early hours sat morning will be the best chance for most people to see snow but it's a shame isn't going to turn out as good as we hoped. Ah well.

nilhg-could you go to your user cp and enter your location into your profile please

Theres little point in people saying they have snow on this thread,if they dont say where.
Putting it in your profile means its under your avatar at all times so you will never have to say it again

Done

Light snow here now but not really sticking. Every passing shower seems to dump more on the higher ground. 1.3c here ATM

Killeshin hills just a few miles away from me have a nice white capping to them :rolleyes:

Ahh JS, i think you deserve it

I have made a list as to what i will do if it snows..

In order,

1) Make snowman
2) Snowball fight
3) Make ginormous Snow ball so big that i can't push it anymore (my favourite!)
4) Go sledging on the local hill
5) Take lots of snaps
6) Build small igloo.
7) sleep in igloo

:D Pity it aint gonna snow here

Have you a sat track / image of that shower band WC? Nothing much showing on the met.ie radar, maybe they're further out. Only a light dusting here so far, ground very wet too. Would be great to make a few snowmen when the kids get back from school .

JanuarySnowstor

The radar is packing up to my northwest
It looks very good for Cork in about an hour or so

Where's that guy that was on here a few weeks ago saying Cork never gets snow??
Cork is full of hills and is actually well poised for snow

Damomanye

just had a snow shower here in Limerick City. Snowed for about 20 mins but none stayed. Wet ground

fozzle

Snow's blowing in horizontally in Sligo town atm. Ground is too warm and wet for anything to stick. There's a light dusting up the mountains, but notmuch even there.

Appears to be some sort of force field in opertaion running north-south between Derry and Waterford!
