Lads the darkness could be due to the fact that dusk is approaching as much as there are dark clouds.

Latest report on met.ie reports +2 in Dublin Airport.

Could be, but about 30min ago it went dark really quick.
Lot of natural light in the office. Not so much a couple of seconds later.

That change in wind direction has moved that stream south that was over north county dublin

Sierra Oscar

Pretty heavy here now in Dublin 4, still light flakes but much much more falling.

The Isle of Man shadow is setting up and it looks like i and North Dublin could be the victims.

Looks like it'll take Navan with it

Nothing in D9, I think us northsiders are getting a raw deal
Went to bed at 8am with expectations of waking up to a whiteout now but no joy.
Have to drive to work from D9 to Leixlip at around 6pm, hopefully see some snow on the way
PS. Am I the only one who likes driving in the snow?

Fitzo

Is Galway gonna be in that Isle of Man shadow?

Have you not seen the clouds coming in from the east, there has been more snow in the past 24 hours than we normally get in a year so have faith. All the signs point to having an almightly pasting of snow in the east tonight and tomorrow.

Skies are almost completely clear in Dublin 15. No snow for the past 45 minutes.

ManAboutCouch

Some light snow fell in Dublin 8 for a few minutes there. No sign of any freezing yet, but it certainly feels colder than an hour ago. The current clouds look a bit too wispy to deliver a dumping. Here's hoping for something more sustained later on.

HellFireClub

Just exiting the M50 at Firhouse to go for a wintry walk up the Hell Fire Club, very heavy snow, Bear Grylls here I come!

del88

I am looking at the clouds on the radar and they are going North East, which means alot of Dublin will be missed. Or maybe i am reading this wrong

mothel

Heavy now in Old Bawn D24

So much for the saying "A snowball's chance in hell"...

candy19

Dark skies over Dublin 8....more snow on the way!

belle_09

Snow showers from Carlow town seemed to have reached Bagenalstown finally. Decent amount falling now

lucernarian

Btw a brief but heavy hail shower from about 3.50pm to 4.03pm. Left maybe nearly a centimetre on many surfaces?

Johnny1999

Just watched the Hills of Kilkenny dissapear under either fog or a snow storm. Cant quite make it out. Meanwhile very cold in the city!

Drop up to my place where there is 8 inches on the ground and lashing snow now, or as u call it non-event.....just cause its not snowing over your house doesn't mean it isn't elsewhere. Everything that met-eireann said last night has happened in Tallaght, i posted pics earlier in this thread that shows it and its still lashing.

ffarrell7

God some people are never happy. It has been snowing in Dublin on and off since last Friday night and a lot of snow has fallen all over the county even on the seaboard where I work- up to 3 or 4 inches and there is still lots of it everywhere. Get a grip!! More light snow in Dublin 15 now:D:D

darkman2

Weathercheck we need a warning thread esspecially for Dublin. There is going to be significant snow fall tonight.



Shower finally breaking through toward Malahide.
