The next five days according to Met Eireann is to be mild are their any indications that a cold easterly will develop and bring us some more lovely snow after mid Feburary.:)

Yes I believe after next weekend we could see the white stuff again(well the rest of the country anyway) I know it's a long way off but this chart looks good even tho it's F1.

I was listening to David Bellamy on the late late show a couple of weeks ago and he said the next 30 years are going to bring very cold winters. I say bring it on.:eek:

Please God, bring us dry and very mild weather, please.

Ignore the people who want cold and misery

DarkJager

Please no more ice or cold weather, I'm sick to death of looking at it.

obrienmichael

If we get 30 years of cold winters we might get 30 years of hot summers. will we be able to stick it? I hope we get another cold spell with lots of snow if only for my three young children. The last cold spell the snow never stuck and my children were very disappointed as was i. :P

Fair play to anyone who can forecast 30 years in to the future, why do we both with met eireann ?

Amen!!

Just a little bit further south & west and it'd be Perfect!! :D

Going by the countryfile forecast up to next weekend looks like the mild weather is going to stay with us with high pressure moving back down towards the Bay of Biscay allowing weather fronts to move down over Ireland from the northwest. :eek:

Thats chart gives a snow level at a minimum above 200 metres though ie 600ft asl doesn't it..which wouldnt be much use to most of us-It's 10 days away mind you-lots of variables between this and then..

The ECMWF at that range is going for a Northwesterly then a sleety low in from the west followed by another northerly.
Wintryness Galore north of a line from Dublin to Galway basically should it pan out that way.
A Temp profile of 4 to 7c though wouldnt suggest much in the way of lying snow at sea level should any wet snow fall there.
Probably dryer further south from the midlands Eastwards...you know the usual story with northerly/Northwesterly showers.
Land convection might happen at this time of the year [though thats more expected from march onwards but it could happen] making showers more widespread.

true, with those temperatures, we'd just have sleet or wet snow showers by day in a north westerly
however, thereafter if we got a proper northerly airsource, the north and north west could see reasonable accumulations, at lower levels, by night.

You guys are hilarious, will you still be interpreting a northerly like so in August!

Snow fetishists.

obrienmichael

If it's a northerly we can forget about any snow reaching us down here in tipp. We always get the cold but the snow never seems to reach us this far south. :mad:

this forum is like a graveyard now, if only for this reason we need another snow event

Gonzo

looks like mostly dry and mild weather into March now, not alot is gonna happen over next week.

nacho libre

yeah, this mild spell looks likes it going to last at least into the first week of March. So goodbye to any prospect of meaningful snowfall for another year.:(:(

maquiladora

Ah well....


I'm actually starting to look forward to the summer now with this mild fine weather.

pistolpetes11

It was good while it lasted .

Lumi

The winter's not over yet!!

Gonzo

im looking forward to a hopefully dry and warm summer as well but i still wudnt rule out one last cold effort during March but it would be short lived due to it being fairly late on in the winter.

I know but having missed out on the snow extravaganza earlier in the month I'll take whatever's on offer;)
