Light snow in Tipp Town for the last hour

Bah, humbug.

Cold, overcast, but with no chance of anything for now....

Even the moldy looking dusting has been replaced by frost/ice cover.

Radar not looking good, temps uninspiring, Snow gods why have you forsaken me?


(Is it because I was cross with the youngsters who threw snowballs at me car the other day?)

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

what's going on ???

Dublin 18 thaw going on, due to sleety rain at some stage last night no doubt. This isn't meant to happen !

Is this the beginning of the end ???

Now the cold spell seems to be over...? What leads you to that conclusion? Lets hope you are not suffering from premature ejaculation of incorrect statements on boards.

Over? Just beginning for some of us!:D

Snow is heavier here now, persistent.

That clump of cloud off the SE coast is the slowest moving thing on earth. If it has snow left when it eventually gets here the south is going to get a lot of snow me thinks.

The fact its raining outside and +3/4c

AntiRip

Sky long term forecast suggest temps of 7c in Cork by Wednesday

Snowing lightly in North Kerry btw and the sky looks full of the white stuff

Supercell

Dewpoints on the way down again, like a warm sector has passed, interesting. Once the precip starts again i'd expect the temps to plunge.

saltie

The big thaw in swords. Is this the end?

Tactical

Light snow here in West Limerick.

Kinda really light flakes that are swirling about and getting blown every where.

What's landing is settling but very, very light dusting so far.

Have the camera ready for if it starts to look anything more than it would look after a good hard frost.

Average temperature from NRA data has risen to approx -3deg C. Have located digital thermometer and going to stick it outside now.

Our man in Havana

Heavy snow here now.

typhooner

just started snowing lightly here, still below freezing

KevIRL

Snow seems to have stopped in Ferrybank area of Waterford for now. Still big heavy clouds about though

larry1

D18 Big Thaw... Kids are gutted. I would imagine Batt will make an announcement cos if this thaw continues, there will be no way schools in Dublin can justify being closed till Wed.

Tipsygypsy

teeniest little baby snowfakes falling in Craughwell co Galway for the past 10 minutes.... come on little baby snowflakes, time to grow up and be big fat giant snowflakes.

I'm obviously near both of you as it's also snowing here,But only very very lightly...I'll be patient though

patneve

What we need in Dublin right now is heavier precipitation to make temps fall...and honestly it all seems pretty light...I had a feeling this was going to happen (stronger wind from sea=massive thaw )

Still snowing in the IDA.

kleefarr

Kilkenny City outskirts...

Temperature: -0.7 °C
Dew Point: -1.0 °C

It stopped snowing a few minutes ago, but I don't think it'll be long before it starts again judging by the state of the clouds. Had about 2cm since 9 o'clock.

eastie

UK Weather radar shows that cloud mass should dump a load of snow on us down South here, I'm 20 miles away from the sea and up high so hope to get it. very very light flakes starting now

kopman83

snowing in mallow now light enough but its better than nothing

miseagustusa

my prayers werent answered...... the bit of snow i had here in arklow is melting rapidly and it doesnt look like we'll be getting any snow today now either:(:mad::(

But enjoy it everyone else whose getting snow:D
