Ive just after realising that despite all of the sunshine of today and yesterday, the temperature outside right now is a shocking -5C and it's 1pm in the afternoon and were still in November. Even during the height of last year's cold spell the temperatures during the day where not this low.

BEASTERLY

Nice line of cb's to my south, seems to be getting closer too.

Looks like those showers are going spin back into the Irish Sea unless the system moves West

Cork looks like it could get a pasting around 4-5pm.
Watch the radar!

Really looks like that system in the Irish Sea is beefing up! Lots of streamers coming of the Isle Of Man too. We may yet get something out of this!

I missed it - give us a run down..:D

just one other thing that system mentioned for Friday will not be all rain. unless there is a huge change between now and then. so assuming there's not, it may be a snow to rain event for many, but i'd be confident that in some places well inland it could stay as snow

The link they tweeted was from http://www.sat24.com/gb..take a look and you can see the cloud mass heading towards Cork.

What about that model that WolfeIRE showed us earlier for Wednesday?? Looked seriously good for Cork! I suppose it has been downgraded by now or if not it prob will be between now and Wednesday...

Hey Guys

Looking at the low and how it is moving do you think Naas could see something out of this ?

Cú Giobach

Wow! That really was a mad forecast for nov. :eek:
I loved the way on the news report they said the "bad" weather could last a while, Anyone here seen any "bad" weather lately??
We should all give our sympathies to those people who only like warm sunny summer conditions.

Some lovely CB hanging just off the coast here, come on in you are expected and welcome.

Sorry if this has already been answered, what time are those snow showers in the Irish Sea due to hit Dublin.
