Any chance of one more radar image please? About to head off from work in west Dublin and will be going through the north city so wanna see if it's gonna hit the north city. Thanks in advance. Just cloudy here in D8 west. :mad:

Must be moving really slowly south MM if you havent gotten much yet - which means when you do - bingo!!!!
Or its very steeply aligned NNE and I may be about to loose it...I choose the former!!

Be careful now!

Snow stopped here atm but sky nice and pink to my north and east.

What are we going to do when this all goes.......recession + no snow = absolute depression!

You should have two more big hits Trogdor. Probably have 2-3 inches after them.

Some even sill building in the norh irish sea.

Either that front to the south is moving north or that streamer is much further south than on that chart, strange.

Sorry for some reason it threw on an older chart when i saved it there. Latest is attached

francosp

is the next band gonna effect north dublin ?

Supercell

Those radar images must be wrong. there is no way this type of precip is not showing on a radar - it MUST be the streamer thats showing over Dublin right now.

That's some blob moving over Howth and Dublin Bay - whoever gets that.....jackpot! Think it may stay too east for me.

Weird, oh well, all it proves is that snow and radar images are not that accurate sometimes, its a whiteout here still, temp down to 0.2°C and falling.

ninebeanrows

Ummm lower res 1730 one shows your precip interesting.

Light snow in Wicklow now, BB should be with you very soon!

hawkwing

Drove from a very snowy dundrum at 1620 with 3 inches to castleknock at 1730 with nothing, 1c in DD and 3c in knock,nothing at walkinstown roundabout and traffic light too.

Supercell

Dying down now. Everything covered again, really beautiful, that might be it for a while

There is a small shower than could threaten to move in over Malahide and slight into the City but more than likely will move in over Howth and into Bray area like the present showers, showers are moving in more of a SSE movement than the SE movement earlier which doesnt help us.

Don't know about Calary but its probably worse than here.

Still coming down heavy. +0.3c

About another 2 inches now on top of the lying snow.
