    Can confirm they don't, it's just mist. Might be something above 500m, but not enough to play in.

    Whitest mist I've ever seen! :D

    Fair play to the forecasters they said rain turning to snow and were spot on. All white here now in south Limerick despite the wet surfaces.

    Roofs, foliage, and car now white.

    It is quite heavy here on the high ground in Kilkenny. I told the sister she should collect her children from school, but she wants to get the shopping done.
    I can't say she was not warned when the car doesn't make it the slopes.
    Leaving shopping till last minute was not a good idea, did mine yesterday.

    It is fairly heavy snow.
    Temp 0.4C
    DP 0.0C

    And we were nervous earlier! Is the cold air this far south by now?

    Snowing here near Mallow but not heavy enough to stick.

    Dusting and 1c. Although nothing to write home about.

    It would be nice to a few inches out of this. Is that possible where I live or am I being greedy?

    If you are in Kilkenny City, it is the same story, where it is 2.3C with a DP of 1.6C.
