Love frosty mornings, cold and clear skies not to mention I love scraping the frost off the car.

Seems appropriate for my area today. 'Nothing lasts forever, even cold November rain'.:)

Nothing like scraping ice or grabbing chunks of ice with your bare hands. It would wake you up in the morning!

Quite cloudy and damp feeling in Tralee with some mist and drizzle at times. From the reports most places turned cloudy as the day went on, missed the rain here.

Can see Tropical storm Rina on the far left of the Sat Pic. Set to traverse the country Fri night just as a wet breezy night ( quite windy on coasts for a time ) and probably feeling relatively mild at first leading to cooler conditions on Sat.

Danno

Overnight low of - 2.5c with a grass minimum of - 5.5c. Stunning morning with lots of white frost under the clear blue sky and shallow fog by the river. Clouded over quickly around noon with patchy rain and drizzle since. Milder Now.

first proper frost of the season here last night, lots of frost this morning with stunning winter sunshine, however this was quickly replaced by heavy rain for much of the day.

Nice afternoon out and about, hazy sunshine,light westerly, good drying (before the rain)

Xenji

Wet and blustery in Castlebar since nightfall, touching 70 km/hr at times.

Oscar Bravo

Status yellow rainfall warning issued from met eireann. Wet friday night ahead

30 to 40mm of rain is expected in Offaly, Limerick and Tipperary.

And 40 to 50mm of rain is on the cards for Galway, Mayo, Clare and Kerry.

Lovely day out there, grass cutting again! :pac:

Checking through the model predictions for precipitation and the GFS would correspond more with Met Eireanns forecast ( ARPEGE and the other European models from what I can see are showing a lot less ). I must say that the GFS is gone up in my estimation lately especially close to events. Will see how it handles this one.

I hope it is wrong !

Drizzle almost like light rain now here near Tralee, looks like it will only get heavier as the day goes on and no clearance in southern counties until late Sat at least.




Rain slow to clear southern counties tomorrow





Big temperature difference between where there is cloud and rain in the warmer airmass and the rest of the country under a Northerly airflow.

9pm reports. raining fairly heavy in the west.

Newport Co.Mayo 5.2mm
Belmullet 3.3mm
Claremorris 2.6mm.
fairly light and patchy elsewhere

Frontal wave is becoming slow moving over Ireland in a fresh westerly airflow,
gusting 41 Knots at Mace Head at 10pm. wet day for most tomorrow now.

Stopped here for an hour but lashing again
You can see how it’s pivoted on the radar
By the looks of things it’s going to take a good few hours to clear

Dry rain here...

4FM weather just now

‘Mainly dry today with just a few scattered showers’

Who supplied them with that or did they make it up?

16mm recorded here since yesterday, no rain at the moment. I'd wager it's going to be alot less wet than expected!

Xenji

Close to 34mm of rain in Castlebar since lunchtime yesterday, still overcast with drizzly rain.

Gonzo

feeling very chilly here this morning at 8c after a very wet night. Temps look like remaining in the single digits for most of us over the next few days.

George Sunsnow

Raining here all day
Still raining
