Am in d13 and it seemed to be overhead here, too! MASSIVE multiple flash and thunderroll right on top of it. Hope there were no aircraft anywhere near that one...

It's the first time I've seen lightning while proper snow is falling in my entire life, it's always been thunder with hail or "thundergraupel":D

Edit: with the reports, it must have been over the liffey somewhere. out towards the port maybe?

lee_baby_simms

Big oul flash and a clap of thunder there in D2. Sure where would ya get it?

snow is nice in proper places.. Ireland is not one of those places..

Lightning in swords now but has stopped snowing

Supercell

Vey wet snow in the CC only setting on the lying slush and snow. I gues a little inland its a different story. Major thaw on here.

Vudgie

This is bordering on the insane now. Intense snow in Dublin along with the thunder and lightning. The sky is so dark in the City Centre right now that it is hard to imagine it lifting any time soon at all.

Not a great deal of sticking though given the intensity of the snow.

Magnum

We may get some snow here soon, it's starting to cloud over......

snowbabe

Heaviest snow I've ever seen in D16. Not just this year.... EVER

del88

temp drop at howth weather station....from 1.2 to 0.9

Slashermcguirk

I am in dublin city and there has been no thaw here, its not thawing if it lands on salt. The reason it appears to be thawing for many in the city is because of salt and grit on the ground. I am in Dublin 8, near Thomas Street and there does not appear to have been any thaw here ? certainly not now with the snow lashing down.

Its 0 degrees outside so hard to believe it could thaw to be honest

partay pooper

back snowing in Portlaoise, heavy flakes!!, I like the snow, it means its not so cold as the freeze my pipes, it was minus something ridiculous last night !!

Not

Thundersnow in Terenure :eek: Never seen it come down so heavy :eek:

Dublin_Gunner

The sun is out in D2

LookingFor

Think the latest stuff is skirting us to the south here. Interesting day so far though, on and off snowing most of the time. Very glad my brother got home yesterday.

billymitchell

Should stop in about 15 minutes for a while, then bring on more about an hour later

Vudgie

I don't know what it is like out at the airport but if it is being hit by the same stuff as we are in D2 it will close.
