Tullow Co. Carlow is -6.4c currently.

Oakpark Carlow Town is -6c @ 22.00hrs


I wonder how many degrees would it vary within about 20 miles?

I know at the moment it's .4 but just in general, could I assume it would usually be about .4 or .5 of a degree warmer in Oakpark compared to Tullow?

Heyes

A few are mentioning snow in south dublin, i thought there as no more snow for us ?! Have things changed again ?

So DM spell it out for me - Am I under the snow blob for a while more now ? Poor significant other - hes finally in the sea to arrive back to more bleedin snow ha ha

Convergence zone is due to move north and then south, may not happen do.

Its forecasted to move onland as move towards dublin, i have a feeling this will kill the convection, then its due to move south and out to sea again(convection picking up), then it move south and weakens through the night.

I can see the weather thread in early May already...

The showers are just clipping the coast at the moment, they might push further inland later. For once the closer you are to the sea the better!

Wouldn't be a problem chopping it down anyway, we only put it up yesterday:p outdoor lights aren't working yet though unfortunately..
Still snowing away here, a good bit heavier again now:)

What do people think corks chances of snow are in the next couple of hours?

Mr. Larson

Another sickener for Wicklow Town I fear - was building and building and moving directly our way - now it's starting to even shift north... just stopped once it got to Bray/Greystones.
