Knock Airport, recent snow, and so it begins

It was sleet that fell, not snow. Synop code 26 was reported ("Recent rain and snow showers"). The met.ie site always reports this as Recent Snow.

Seriously though, it's a wide county where the weather varies alot due in no small part to the lovely Atlantic.

Hehe. Had lovely clear skies in athlone just there. 5 minutes later it's bucketing

1-3 cm of snow forecast for Knock up to midday tomorrow.

That's disappointing given its height. Is it the case that these forecast tend to be conservative, if not that's bad news for lower ground.

I think this quite optimistic chart deserves a mention :P

It's less than 24 hours out, but I'd still take this with a big pinch of snow salt.

horrible night here, plenty of cold rain. Current temp 4C.

Not so much as a flake here in South Donegal. Have my tongue ready for the snowflakes. I think I'll be waiting a while

We all enjoy snow in our own unique little ways.

Looks impressive,Init,but I'm highly dubious , especially at the immediate coast,cant foresee accumulations at the immediate coast,in what I call 'slosh' a fluctuating combination of hail,sleet and wet snow that won't accumulate.

Gosh,I feel like gaoth Laidir pissing all over the GFS snow charts.
