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.

Wow - just had a call there - cars being pushed off Fairyhill in Bray - like WTF ?

I think I've had my lot too. Everything seems to be pulling away to the east with the LP.

Damm this thread...I've basically lost the guts of a days work - just couldn't concentrate. My mother in law suggested I just close the blinds! Reckon we won't see the likes here for a long time.

A good 2-3 inches on the grass. A little more in the drifts at the side of the road. Very very slippery. Light, slightly wet snow falling consistantly.

Taken on my phone this afternoon

I'm in Annamoe which is down the road from Roundwood.
Being close to Scarr mountain I get more than my fair share of snow in these conditions
Is a blizzard here again, easily 3cm of new stuff on the roads, wil measure the grasss tomorrow as there aint gonna be a thaw there as its sitting on top of about 4 or 5 inches of lying snow already.

Still heavy here. Outside my back door:

Here is that band that could threaten to push further west than the ones which hit Howth and into the southeast of Dublin.

You lucky gits..

The mods here told me they were sending some snow down to the south east on Tuesday but it must be still stuck in customs or somewhere.

Jammy Dublin messers the lot of ye. Ye get the Luas, nice restaurants, shops, motorways, and the good snow!!!!!

in cork here tony..doubt it very much unless a passing shower. hoping that at the weekend this rain/sleet might stall and give some snow but its a long shot i'd say as probably need to be further north.

just for a few days i wish i was living on east coast again!

No looks like the precip is going be to far south and as the winds shift more N of east, the showers will stop.

Same for here too except im just painstakingly close

I'm amazed to hear and see how bad it's been around most of the rest of dublin..here (D15) it's snowed quite frequently through the day, but there's been no stickage.

Strange, cos we seemed to get lying snow here with the first phase of this cold spell, when a lot of the rest of the city didn't so much!

About $%#@ing time!!

Went into Tesco's and nada. Came out about 3/4 of an hour later and had people coming in the door laughing after I saw outside and uttered,
"Holy $%#@!" without thinking.

Slushy on the roads and paths down my end one road back from the seafront with the heavy foot and vehicular traffic but I'd say where we used to live beside Tesco must have at least 2 inches by now. Snowed heavy for a good hour here in Bray though its stopped now.

Mothman

Heavy hail
1.4/0.6C

It took a worrying southerly dive!

Another band behind it that could devlelop and affect more southern areas in the coming hours.

I want the wind to stay NE!!

Baneblade

i cant belive that big blob over howth did not drop anything in the port area!!!

Going to see if i can see howth glowing in the dark

check out http://www.sat24.com/frame.php?html=view&country=gb&sat=ir looks like the wind direction to the north and south are in opposite directions and were right in the middle of it

Supercell

Utter utter whiteout again outside here, incredible, massive big flackes thick..THICK i tells ya in the gentle breeze!!

squonk

Very nasty walkingconditions in the city center. You wouldn't want to be going anywherein a hurry. Nice accumulations to be seen on the train to skerries now. Going to be interesting once we go past Howth Junction! Still hoping for a decent freeze later!

darkman2

Told yah it would snow today:D


Was a bit mental in town earlier. Very heavy snow in the Evening and a whiteout on my way in this morning too.:)


The snow should clear off the coast in the next few hours as the wind goes more northerly. The focus now should be, well the North and Northwest first of all but also Sunday is looking very interesting indeed!:)

JonnyM

None in arklow yet but fingers crossed.
currently 1.3c

CianRyan

What do ya reckon for Tallaght, lads?
Have i seen the last of it?

Supercell

WC any chance of an updated "low res" radar again, the high res ones seem to be missing out the stuff here

Dublin Airport closed till 7pm.

Mothman

Light snow

If this shower delivers I could see my deepest accumulation of the week.

ninebeanrows
