    Think someone said here a while ago it actually doesnt know what it is, but uses the local forecast to tell. But it does seem to occassionally show two different types of precip in the one area :confused:

    The 0000 updates from the NRA website are showing temperatures to be pretty stable in the Munster region. Now if only a few more showers would materialise.

    Letterkenny was subjected to numerous fights last night-early morning as clubs emptied. The main street was a battle ground for many drunken revellers!

    As said,you know its a good night when it ends in a snowball fight in Letterkennys' main street:D

    Well they had snow, only difference I can see from that report.

    No snow in Letterkenny,although some nasty looking clouds have brought some amazing if sparse lighting over the mountains!Hopefully snow will follow behind it!

    On top of that we had a small plane flying around at a few hundred metres that was lost. He must of got struck by lighting and lost GPS. Got n his way now.

    Probably not amounting to anything, as RainToday has it in very light red, which from following the action on Friday, seems to indicate precip that does not reach the ground. But, I live in hope, still...

    Lots of lightening here in West Donegal, its moving away to the south now. Power interupts, computer resets etc.

    Yeah, I saw 2x flashes of lightning over the Ballyshannon/Donegal area from the house here (Just outside Enniskillen) Quite spectacular!! First one was at 00.17 and the second at 00.19.
    Could anyone explane what's going on please and why there is lightning/thunder during snow??

    As for current conditions here... the sound of snow very slowly melting and dripping from the trees, other than that no snow!! Just a clear starry night - with dark clouds on the horison over Ballyshannon/Donegal area.

    Right, I'm putting the kettle on again for another mug of coffee, poking my head out of the window for a look at what's still outside just in case it rains instead of snows.

    The little traffic that's out is crawling, will be crazy in the morning .

    The Gardai had got numerous calls regarding it,he had the cockpit light on.Must have been looking at his map and taking Letterkenny,Kilmac and Ramelton as reference points. Must have been looking for Carrickfinn,he flew into the lighting clouds!
