It was NE in most of the Irish sea (IOM) but now its ENE, I think thats good news for the southside right ? (someone help me out here please)

ANYONE know if this is right, has the wind changed & is Dublin going to get hit ?

Very heavy snow here but still not cold enough to stick, 1.2C/0.1C, everything is wet.

So that's at least seven inches in D14 in the last 3-4 days.

not bad.

Could people add their location and height above sea level below their name. Its important in this type of thread.

For height above sea level : http://www.earthtools.org/

For location : look at the last letter delivered to your house

Shows you what a km does - Extreemly heavy. Everything ( roads inc) covered again...... Absolutely bucketing down. Footprints all covered in again & obviouslycold enough- even the pine trees looked like we sprayed them with fake snow again....

Trogdor

Starting to stick to cars here but that's all it seems like such a waste given the sheer volume of snow that is actually falling here, crazy amounts! 1.1C/0.1C

Made my first snowman today at the age of 20! Very proud

Alot of folk disgruntled with the Isle of Man here. Myself included.

Kinda reminds me of the Icelandic Volcano.
