Snow Reports/ Thundersnow & Chat - 26/11/2010 onwards

Speak Now

I can see very dark clouds at sea to my south east, very calm though so they won't be drifting in over us. Currently a bitter -4.1c.
Sun tried it's best earlier but it never got above -1c.

[edit] lol back to the heavy stuff again. From the looks of it on radar it hasn't even begun to snow in drogheda and it looks like we're getting at least another hour or two of what's coming down now...

Almost rain now here. Sigh.

Well this Low system is spinning all over the place but I don't think it will hit Carlow. It could change but at the moment I doubt it

Stopped here now but I reckon it's a lull...a bit of a dry slot and then there's another band or secondary circulation.
either way what's fallen will freeze now that the sun's gone.

Tea drinking weather.

Welsh Wizard

Snow for Greystones ?

Trotter

Made it home to Waterford.. M9 is fine until you hit Kilkenny and then its in a rotten state down towards Waterford.

I can see some dark clouds out to sea to the South East that seem to be creeping in a little bit.

Anyone else from Waterford keeping an eye on this? Id love to know what the experts here are thinking!

Jamie-b

No snow in Wicklow town still- but all the snow on the ground is freezing an is very slippy. Not looking forward to the drive to work tomorrow!

ednwireland

ok guys you've had your fun can you turn the snow machines off now !

really weird this afternoon temp jumped to 5.8c when it sterted snowing melted snow off the drive and cars (swept smow off earlier)

Wertz

Back to steady falling graupell here now after that lull. Main rioad is looking dicey now never mind side streets.

I'm waiting on confirmation too, have to drive to Clonmel via some bad roads. Kilkenny got even more snow last night than the night before.
Been lower than -2 all day. Was -7 at 10.30am :O

BEASTERLY

-8.2 here already after a max of -1.7.

Textbook frost hollow effect here!

Last night we got a min of -9.2 but once any sort of wind got going cold pooling was abolished and temps shot back up to -4 after a few hours of -8/9.

Also very happy that there was zero thaw here today. This cold spell is atleast twice as good as last january.

tubos

Did Anyone drive from Dublin to Athlone/Galway today or vice versa? How was the M50/M4/M6?

Lissoy

Snowing lightly for the past hour on the Meath coast. Just stopped but sticking.
Still lots of clouds around though.

Is that system south of arklow, heading north or south???? PLEASE HEAD IN THE ARKLOW DIRECTION :P lovely whiteout here already but more snow is always welcome

by the looks of it enniscorthy will get snow at 6ish

Heyes

Any hope for south dublin for any snow ?

wild handlin

Not much sign of any snow clouds....yet:pac:

LookingFor

I wonder how far north the clump off gorey will be dragged. It might hit north wicklow, possibly even dublin...if it doesn't collapse. The other stuff off dublin seems to be dissipating, although it wasn't ever moving in to dublin anyway, was being pulled up into the stream coming in to dundalk etc.

By the looks of the radar Dundalk should be getting some fairly decent falls at the moment?

Garseys

I'm hoping we get even dusting of snow tonight/tomorrow morning, means I won't have to skate down to the Luas!:pac:
