    There looks to be another batch of EC off the west coast and likely to track countrywide. Will probably be the best hope for later.

    After snowing earlier for a few minutes, precipitation eased back to light or very light and returned to rain along with a 1c rise in temperatures. Back down below 2.5c again now, but no precipitation despite the very heavy skies.

    It’s hilarious when you see these charts and usually Cork is either completely clear or else covered in just horrible rain :-P

    An almost continuous band of rain/hail/sleet showers that is really totting up the prep totals now. Never very heavy though at any one point.

    No different here- just horrible rain, I can't even get sleet at 1c.
    It only snows from an easterly here so I'd say the next snowfall is due in about 50 years!

    I can perfectly get snow from northerlies or northwesterlies just as much. It's just a matter of the setup being just right.
