    Just looking at the radar looks like we got lucky with heavier bursts. Really heavy here now

    Don't mean to divert from today's schenadigans but the prognosis for tomorrow night is interesting to say the least. Meanwhile tomorrow morning eventful for Ulster

    Tomorrow night, snow over Ulster clears and some significant snow possible in to other areas.

    Does that mean we should expect more in those areas? Have to drive around lunchtime and wondering should I leave earlier. Thanks

    Sleet at Shannon and Kerry at 11 am. There was also sleet at Shannon at 10am with temp/dp 0.2/-0.8. That's a wet bulb temperature below zero and should have been snow but it shows a very shallow cold surface layer and up higher the wbt is well above zero.

    Again by the looks of it we are relying on the instensity of the precipitation.
    Getting increasingly patchier

    It will be patchy at best for the rest of the day as the front extends erratically eastward, pepping up a little this evening over northern Leinster.


    The snowfall warning may need updating and extending for the northern counties for tonight/early hours of tomorrow morning

    Can we not just get a clean band of moderate to heavy snow in this country?

    In Shannon atm, and it was snow alright falling at times, but very light but gave a dusting, but it did change to a light sleet at times too. Felt like if it got any bit heavy at all that it would have been full on snow.
