    I can confirm snow in Donabate but extremely light just now; based on what we've heard from Drogheda and Dundalk there's more to come.

    This thread is moving along too fast for me.
    We're filling up pages in 3-4 mins.
    It's amazing how many so people (myself included) would do anything for a bit of the white stuff! :)

    I currently can't remember for the life of me where I read or heard this, but it was that a raindrop is more reflective of the doppler radar, perhaps because of density of actual H2O molecules etc, but anyway the snowflakes being bigger compensated for it.

    Effectively, radar-measured reflection strengths of snow precipitation are similar to rain ppn reflected intensities. Apologies for not being able to give a source right now.

    Any further comments on the comma low / mess to the north of Scotland??

    Thanks for that info, that question was at the back of my mind for a while, always got distracted before googling it :)

    As for the mess...it's becoming a bigger mess...which is good ;)
