    Could be wrong but I think Met radar image just uses Shannon and Dublin but UKMO one has radar from Belfast too.

    From what I can gather ( i know nothing nor claim to) the further south it pushes is its getting colder & turning to snow right ?

    warm front passed the north now, colder air should be on the way, along with that bulk of precip

    Yeah, could be WC. Just looks like a shower here really. There isn't much behind it either according to ME's radar. I don't mind as long as we get a few wintry showers later. Going to get the Christmas movies going!

    not a bad radio forecast there. she said there likely will be accumulations tonight and over the next couple of days, although it will tend to dry out after sunday, but some showers at times still thereafter. no sign of it getting milder around christmas either.

    While most of the snow echos in the North seem to be associated with high ground and therefore static, there does seem to be some snow precip a fair distance behind the rain front gradually descending south south eastwards between Sligo and Enniskillen
