    Development in the north Irish Sea looking at the latest ME radar? Wind direction just about ok at the moment for the Dundalk area. Wrong wind direction plus Mournes/Cooley snowshield kept us out of the Dec 2010 streamer events.

    M2 Buoy 1pm: temp 3.3, DP -1.1

    DP at midday was -0.3. Nice drop.
    If there was a buoy 30kms off the coast of Arklow though,Its Dp would be above zero.
    Dp here 2 miles from the sea is nearly 1c

    oh we didn't get that far actually, we got as far as glenmacnass.
    Plenty snow there.There were a group in the glenmalure lodge who had hiked from glendalough who spoke about the waist deep snow there.
    Twas night time so only took 2 photos which don't do it justice.

    Interesting. DP for Phoenix Park from the 1pm ME reports is -0.37. While according to the live update from the Irish Weather Network home page it's -1.2.

    I sense some IMBY negativity here! But whatever happens, 1) the showers look light 2) the temperature is still apparently a little too high.

    Currently 2.0c outside here.
