3.0c DP -1.0c here atm.

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

For schizzle

It has got noticeably darker in Dublin's City Centre. Very overcast sky and the wind has picked up. Otherwise all quiet so far.

Though the burning head shops will help raise the temp a bit haha :pac:

I think there will probrably be sleety snow in Dublin but only for a short time (a couple of hours). Not expecting any accumulations away from high ground. Turning more to rain through the evening. That's what the models indicate anyway.

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.

No .
You will have full snow there near lamb doyles now.
I'm 100% confident of that.

How long before it reverts to sleet is the question.

Small snowflakes blowing in the wind now. 2.9c DP -1.0c

Heard it but didn't listen, if you know what I mean! To busy looking out the window. Sounded all very vague as usual (given the conditions that are in it) - the usual rain, sleet and snow with no real specifics.

Very light snow atm. 2.9c DP -1.0c

Come down to Kildare !! We get loads of it

Dewpoint has just gone above zero her and mostly rain now.

I reckon once the precip gets to the m2 buoy properly,it's dp will start to rise rapidly as a result of the mixing and the warm front.

2.8c/0.2 here

thanks nacho. good luck to you too. I am on higher ground though and I would bet Shannon will report sleet for 1pm update.

Love the way traffic suddenly disappears from the roads when it snows. everything goes quiet and I feel like all my neighbours are doing the same as me...sipping cup of coffee and staring out the window at one of nature's most beautiful sights....SNOW:)

Very light snow and snizzle continues. 2.8c but DP on the way up, -0.7c

Nothing to report my end of the county, East Donegal.

Looking at the BBC map, they have changed for us for tomorrow and Thursday. We could get a pasting al right.

We're getting the begining of something here in Rathfarnham.
