What's the website that shows the current Temps/DPs across the country?

I don't know where we're at now, but I always like monitoring the falls as the cold air sets in and while watching raintoday!

Thanks

Dewpoints are encouraging in Dublin, -1.5 on the edge of the bay.

This could be very interesting. Potential for a proper snow event, not just showers. 120 hours off though....

Is there a standard dewpoint/temp combination that tends to lead to precip falling as snow?

Gona be a very interesting day here beside barnesmore gap outside donegal town. The strong winds started last nite round 3 and has kept up since but has seemed to calm down in the last half an hour. The hail started falling round 8.30 this morn and continued till 10. The ground and the surrounding areas are completely white.
My girlfriend had to drive through the gap to work in letterkenny this morn and she phoned to say it was completely covered in hail and snow was starting to fall. As I said before it's looking like its gona be a interesting day, can't wait

Taking a half day so the guy can service the boiler. It has been acting up since Christmas Day. I hope Naas gets some snow while I am at home.

I'm high in the hills of Donegal but haven't had so much as a hail shower, nevermind a snowflake. Very windy and bitterly cold though. I'm kinda glad, don't want to be housebound again.

If ever there was a chart to bank it's the 6z GFS this morning for 120 hours. Pray to the snow Gods lads. As Maq has noted it's a proper slow moving snow event,not raggy bands of showers. Been a while.
