    Top of Truskmore blanketed.
    Big fluffy flakes were falling.
    Looks like 2-3 inches on cam. (I have a friend who has a friend...)

    Seems to match the satellite view! Now to find out if there'll be any thunderstorms. Very little chance of snow in Dublin imo.

    Snowing on Mullaghanish and Maghera (Mullaghanish first).

    Looks like snow on Woodcock Hill (Clare) as well. But just blurs on cam, so can't confirm.

    Is anyone interested in these mountain reports? Won't bother if not. But will continue to monitor if interested. I realise it isn't necessarily relevant to the lower elevations nearby.

    as would many of us except for people like mike65:P

    we could get something appreciable overnight. there is a couple of active troughs set to come into the north west around midnight. okay we won't get anything like the snow in New York but Donegal, Mayo, Sligo, Leitrim and parts of Roscommon should get some modest accumulations overnight. an inch of lying snow by morning would do me.

    in dublin 4 at the moment, currently drizzling. earlier you could see little bits of sleet mixed in with it, but very small amounts. wouldnt be at all surprised if it snowed tonight were I live, i.e. leopardstown/stepaside area. any other thoughts?

    yes, some showers should make it across to the east overnight and through to tomorrow. although, i'm not fully convinced the showers by day will be exclusively of snow on lower ground

    Mt. Leinster has light coverage of white stuff.

    Snowing at Kippure. Hasn't stuck yet (at least in view of cam).

    Looks like it may have rained at Maghera. What was sticking has mostly disappeared except for one clump visible stuck on a windscreen wiper.

    Nothing visible at Woodcock Hill now.

    Good thick blanket remains on Truskmore.

    Probably won't have any more updates til later, and that's providing friend can keep me posted.

    Temperatures fell like a rock here and the rain turned to sleet and then snow.

    Light snow falling now.

    You must be on high ground?

    i notice the NRA baltinglass report for 3pm is 2.9c under the same rain band as me.It must be getting very sleety over there too.
    DP's this side of the country are typically at most only 1.5c below the air temp so that would translate to 1.3c perhaps dp in baltinglass

    Sleet/Wet Snow here, but turning more to sleet/rain as it becomes less heavy

    Derryveagh Mountains in North Donegal are lovely and white. Snow line too high to affect Muckish pass road. Just driven from Falcarragh to Letterkenny that way, Aghla Beg gloriously white.
