    Yeah there's another narrow but heavy looking one heading for somewhere between city centre and north Wicklow.

    Light snow falling here.

    Snowing lightly in D18 and sticking!

    Up in the foothills around Stepaside I would imagine. Barely a flake here in Cabinteely.

    I think atm in Cork City we are dependent on showers moving across waterford then down to us, while we pray that they keep their strength.

    I don't know where here is
    I don't think its game over for lots of the country
    We still have a possible 3-4 days of snow showers be it from Emma or Irish Sea streamers


    As noted on the previous posts of mine D16.

    Reading the Technical Thread it's starting to sound like rain if the low stays near the west if Kerry.

    Some of the showers seem to be dying out before they make landfall around Dublin. Is this likely to continue overnight?

    It's beginning to snow right now in the area of Newtownpark Avenue at Blackrock in Dublin. But so far it is very light. It may become heavier in a few hours from now.

    So far I’m seeing nothing but minor skiffs in any of the pics posted. Up here in the North we’ve had nearly 10 individual events this winter with similar amounts from the NW’ly outbreaks (and four of them had snow depths of 2” to 6”).

    It will be disappointing if this airmass doesn’t deliver something substantially better than that. Fingers crossed for everyone that things ramp up significantly overnight or tomorrow. Surely it must beat the northerlies we’ve seen this year!

    I must admit to being a skeptic of easterlies for Ireland. Mainly a biased view due to being in eastern NI where they usually result in dry, crisp, and cold spells.

    I do have a white garden out the back at the moment but it’s from snow grains! Hoping for a wind shift more to the SE to increase the sea fetch.

    Snow aside, the feel of the weather is just fab right now! Crisp air, cold nostrils when breathing, deep blue sky today, glorious sunset with some towering cumulus floating, and Venus shining low in the west at sunset!

    You could see that a lot of the snow falling out of any clouds here this afternoon was re-evaporating on the way down. You could see precip shafts falling hundreds of feet below the cloud bases and just disappearing! Dew point was down to -8c around 6pm at Belfast City Airport

    Good luck guys and fingers crossed that something more substantial kicks off!

    Three defined streamers now.

    It's certainly getting better and better.

    A little light snow now in Dublin 16. 0.9c atm.

    Nice to see the elongated streamers develop.

    Interestingly I saw Belfast had a relatively humidity of 48% this afternoon at one stage. That’s pretty low for these shores! The sky was a deep continental blue at the time too!
