Snowing very heavy here in south donegal ,place is covered in whiteness, but the sun is still trying to break through, nice to see a covering non the less.
I think it will be short lived ,its snowing and its sunny.

Heavier clump creeping southeastwards.

Might slip too far east of here now!

Looking a good clump though.

Meanwhile heavier bust stopped and quite wet out now.

More sleety, though the flakes are bigger.

I wish the ground wasn't already really wet, there would be a good covering by now.

Yep quite abit of precip has fallen here, a hard frost would have made all the difference.
