    Crazy snow in D 16, has been for the past 30 min or so
    I'd say we have had another 2 inches since morning........

    Havn't been home since 9 this morning...
    Anyone know if there's heavy snow in the D7: Cabra/Ashtown area?

    Considering the radar track, and the photo from Pheonix Park posted earlier, then the answer is a resounding YES.

    Dumping snow now in Belarmine/Stepaside.

    Wish it would just melt already... the novelty is wearing off fast.

    It's still milling down in D13 (Malahide Road end), has been for the last two hours or so. I went out just after 2pm and the snow was about 4 inches deep in the driveway and I've just realised that you can't see my footprints anymore! :eek:

    Still bucketing down in Knocklyon, up to about 9 inches now. Insane stuff! :D

    Most of the images on this http://www.dublincity.ie/dublintraffic/ haven't been updated in about 2 hours. Maybe they're afraid to show their failure! I'd say the whole city has stopped by now.

    Behind these houses you can usually see the rest of Dublin city, but for all I know it doesn't exist anymore!

    I'd fall in to that category. Mainly its because we only really got a taster of it down here and all we (outside the Pale) are reading is how great and blizzardy the conditions are up that way. Its pure jealousy really. I'd be happy to see it all gone now purely out of spite ;)

    D11 is fairly mental, around botanics and ballygall. Fairly consistent snow all day and big grey clouds.

    Gettin me in a festive spirit!

    It's just lovely here :) Drinking tea, watching movies and the snow


  • Registered Users Posts: 365 ✭✭TFK


    Madness here today, it has been snowing pretty much since 9 this morning. Lots of very heavy showers, with the odd 10 min break.

    The kids are loving it! Snow twice in the same year :D

    5cms here in the last hour. :eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,431 ✭✭✭✭Supercell


    Unbelievable stuff! Do not come NEAR the city center by car if you can avoid it, its a disaster area!!

    That's how we felt when we were deep in the depths of the Isle of Man shadow monster and you were getting pasted ;)

    Id say we got more than a "taster" of it down here, more like a 5 course meal yum yum :D

  • Registered Users Posts: 4,316 ✭✭✭lafors


    Been snowing for at least the last 2 hours in D9, getting deep.
    I made a snowman for the little fella earlier and all the tracks in the garden are covered over. Will have to make a second snowman now :)
