    Southern suburbs of Dublin look like they are taking a hammering from an increasingly heavy snow shower which is moving into the area.

    Anyone from the area able to confirm if this is the case, Docarch perhaps?

    Heavy enough right now highdef, how long it stays falling is the question..... I currently don't have access to good radar at the moment but it is starting to settle :)

    Proper heavy snow falling here now, the likes of which I have not seen since 2010. Everything (including roads) dusted white. Not sure how long it will last.

    1.1c DP -0.3c atm.

    Hard to tell but it looks like the thicker band of what dublin is getting will hit Wicklow in the next half hour, unless the Wicklow mts takes it all.

    If you're sitting in the house/office looking out at it .. yes :)

    If you're coming downhill with the traction control going like mad and sliding while you try to avoid an insurance claim by not running into the car struggling to get up that hill... not so much! :(

    Just received an update from the weather radar here in work (private not public) and it looks as if N.Cork/Limerick will see heavy snow at times this evening and tonight :)

    Next band 5-10mins from here and there is a temperature of 0.6c here. Considerint the last band started at 1.7c, I'd say it will be a little better this time

    I hope this ends the debate about the east coast never getting any snow from the West!

    Really nice heavy shower in Limerick a few mins ago but it hasn't stuck to anything except cars as the roads are too wet.

    Yip...last of the snowflakes falling here for now...I can see blue/clear sky to my west.

    Nice while it lasted. It has plastered the place white (temporarily). I really was not expecting that today.

    0.8c DP -0.4c atm.

    Just tapering off here now, nice (albeit temporary) covering here at the moment. Glad I'm not driving the evening rush hour in that.

    Strange to see the hills in Killeshin covered in snow but not one flake on Mt Leinster.
