    I would not expect the precip to arrive until around 5pm in Dublin.

    Met Eireann have just issued Snow Warnings for Shannon, Knock and Casement Airports (for light snow). The Casement one is notable, being only a few miles inland from the east coast, but at 94m.

    I think it's moving quicker than that WC?

    Update from XCWeather:
    Bouy M2 3c/-3c
    Valley 3c/-4c
    IOM 3c/-5c
    Aberporth Bouy 3c/-2c

    Good stats from M2 Bouy!

    Just to highlight, I'm only expecting rain with a bit of sleet maybe - anything more will be a bonus.

    Yea its all to do with that land wind, there isnt any REAL maritime component to it, just a strong dry wind off Britain.

    Yes the precip does look on the latest loop that it could hit Dublin around 3/4pm

    Looking good Su - thanks!! I'll probably have too much of a maritime influence from the Irish Sea here to see much but fingers are crossed! Certainly, the dewpoint is very low at the moment but the air temp is too high:

    Bangor air temp/dew point: 4.1C/-7.7C

    :)

    There is always plenty of snow in Lucan... sure its beside Clondalkin ;):pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,851 ✭✭✭✭average_runner


    Ha ha, going by that statement Dublin is just white 24x7!

    I reckon some sleet and possibly very wet snow briefly before turning to rain. That's probably the realistic forecast.

    3.0c DP -0.8c


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,736 ✭✭✭ch750536


    whiteout! Visibility to 50m very heavy snow now in a strong easterly.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,851 ✭✭✭✭average_runner


    Cheers for that. You know what time it would stop at so can plan a run:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,667 ✭✭✭WolfeIRE


    Light snow here. Blowing in the easterly wind its beautiful.

    all of a sudden its now heavy snow. Every flake is settling. Hopefully it continues.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,693 ✭✭✭Redsunset


    WOW much heavier bursts now and blowing around goodo.

    IS IT EARLY

    Just looked outside - drizzle but very visible drizzle, so snizzle I'd say. Probably from those showers visible ahead of the front.
