Fierce Cold Spell from Sunday (February 1st)

Scubadevils

Pretty heavy again in Lusk... terrible to think it could all turn to rain later.

leixlip kildare is covered and still coming down, all the kids are out making snowmen, a few phillipino kids moved here recently and have never seen snow before,theyre loving it.

This is a classic cold spell folks..lets see some snaps in the weather photos forum so we can all enjoy them next winter when a bit of sleet gets everyone excited and we need to see what is possible here
Snow lying needs pics or GTFO ..I don't believe yer!!:eek::P:pac::D

Here ends the public service announcment from your friendly snow ramping mental mod.

Just drove home from Rathcoole to Naas (N7) and OMG!! Blizzard conditions. Still snowing here in Naas with a nice inch or 3 on the ground. Roads very dodgy if your heading this direction.

another hail shower here, starting to stick on the ground but easing off already, showers here still extremely patchy.

I really hope not! Stopped snowing here now but temp is 0.0c and DP is -1.0. Perfect for more snow. Pressure still falling.

3 foot of snow here now, cant open door i am trapped, seriously:D

Bluefrog

I'd guess at least 60% hail in that last shower but it was a heavy one - dogs are going insane out in the yard - even seems to bring out their playful side (not that that takes much)!

Has just started snowing again here now and it's small. Hope it doesn't mess with what's already on the ground.

can't wait to see what comes tonight

Mint Sauce

Snowing away again here!! Moderate shower, must be close to 3" or so now!!

Seriously, this is the best snowfall I've had since my childhood! All I've been used to is snowfall at night, a light covering by morning and melted by 12pm :rolleyes:

Thanks Supercell and WeatherCheck for this cool snow event!! :pac:

maquiladora

0C and -1.9DP here in Waterford....now we just need the snow....c'mon baby! :pac:

silverski

Nothing here on the seafront in Bray, still the strong winds from the East.

Kids are very dissappointed.

Will have to wait and see what the night will bring

Yeah I'm surprised myself! Most I have seen since 2001, long enough wait.

Gonna be a nerve wrecking night waiting for this system to come in. :pac:

My kids go to FCJ in Bunclody. Text message already received from school. All off tomorrow. I'll tell them in an hour or 2.

Sorry about pic quality, but I don't want to GTFO

East is directly to the left of the pic. I love how you can see the snow plastering up against the exposed parts of the trees etc.

BTW BBC weather there showed snow along the east coast all night then looked like it turned into a wintry mix for an hour or 2 before clearing.
