    Snow has started again here, difference this time is the ground is cold and its sticking to the road and path.
    Showers are loosing strength very quickly though and it was a feeble attempt.

    Have awoke to a fresh dusting in Sligo Town to all surfaces. Another hail/grapple shower as I type.

    Should we expect anymore snow this morning?

    Typical, you have the precipitation when there's not great temperatures for snow and when you have the temperatures, there is no precipitation.

    No snow at all at Grange.

    That's a northwesterly for you. Dublin Airport reported snow at 4 am, otherwise rain. Some other stations the same, though a good few snow reports too, especially in the north.

    There was snow in almost every county overnight apart from Wexford. As forecast.

    Nothing more in West Clare, 3.8c now and the little bit that fell well melted of course.

    Was somewhat nice to see a little bit of slush around, however I didn't catch it falling with my own eyes so it's debate able how nice it really is ;)

    Edit: actually to my surprise, there's still some around. Some of the sheltered areas are actually still white, and there was no frost last night.

    Yes, but there were also rain reports. It wasn't exclusively snow, as is typical for a northwesterly.

    We need a tribunal of inquiry to investigate how the Cork Snow Shield was breached with Danny Healy Rae as chair!
