    You in Westport? All the showers seem to be going around me.

    Yeah, just stopped again but it will be back!

    I thought the Mountains North of Clew bay were stealing all of my stuff.

    You'll probably get some soon snaps.

    5C and damp here in Limerick City about 15 minutes ago.

    If it freezes on this tonight, we're plucked!!

    And just to mention that Daughter No 1 came home from Cork this afternoon. Traffic was manic and there was rain but no snow :D:D

    According to the maps on netweather, we can expect it Saturday morning!

    In keeping with the Cork line of thinking.

    I have a part asian friend from Cork who likes to confuse things in race conversations.

    She describes herself as Cork-Asian.

    Ya dont get me wrong, I really enjoy the banter and Chit Chat also but when a thread is for Model and Chart discussion only and people start asking if it will snow in their back garden on Dec 21st, etc...I think some people dont actually read the threads, they just think they can ask a question and get it answered there and then. Rant over, now bring on the snow!

    The chart discussion thread has very little "idle" chit chat going on.
    There will always be a small bit, but it doesn't seem too excessive (for the moment).

    EDIT: It actually is sticking surprisingly, road is already covered after a little over 5 minutes of it. ^_^

    Thats the problem with the strong wind, the showers are only lasting 5 minutes at a time. 2 weeks ago we had a lot less frequent showers but they lasted 15-20 minutes so gave a much better covering.

    Still plenty of time for some better stuff but at the moment its not snowing for long enough to give a decent accumulation

    On that note, its snowing heavily yet again
