    These types of snow mad threads are very informative and entertaining. Another late night on the screens beckons for me, and I love the updates, although the charts bewilder me!

    I just wish that posters who do not have a location beside their name would fekkin TELL US where they are!!

    Best of luck for snow all.

    Where is your location?

    Not at all, a red warning is what’s needed to shut schools . A little few flurries is what Is expected really . A yellow warning is what’s in place now

    A red warning is only required for wind to shut schools. I'd imagine snow well-worthy of an orange warning would likely cause a few closures

    Was thinking that myself actually a good 5-6 cm could be enough to close the schools if they wish

    Cork airport reporting snow at 8pm, and the TAF amended to reflect snow until possibly 1am.

    Meanwhile in West Clare it's 3.7c and drizzly. Enjoy ye * ;)

    Dunno if I can muster the enthusiasm to even stay awake past 10pm to see what this phantom like front can rustle up for Dublin. It’s a sorrowful looking effort. Clearly at this stage there should be widespread reports of snow right across the midlands were this of any note. I’m now Predicting 1cm max in city near sea level.

    That doesn't inspire that much confidence in the radar.

    I have 5-a-side at 9 pm. Just the night for getting a bang of the ball on the ear! Hope to be using the orange ball...but I doubt there'll be that much a need.
