Gales with snow grains in swords. Lights been flickering the last few mins.

Blizzard light snow Galway east. Epic. Our red warning extended too.

I think we are in an ice storm here, a ****ty mofo ice-storm. I like snow, kill me.

D4 is like a scene from The Road

Still have power here in Santry, but with a baby I've gotten up and filled two flasks of hot water in case we see power loss

Still a long way to go yet, Emma's main band has yet to give us her heavy load :pac:

*Quoted Image removed*

Which is the main band? My in Bray precipitation has gotten a lot less intense the last half hour when I was expected it to get more intense. Also, its still just snow grains that are simply not accumulating in my corner of Bray. 5 hours in with literally a cm to show for it

The snowfall in West Dublin is more overall than 2010....a lot more now with some spectacular drifts forming and driving snow.

Where are you, Kerry??

This is insane. From whatsapp and here it appears most if not all of Dublin is now out of power.

On the powercheck esb app it’s saying there’s a outage in ringsend at 1.34am estimated restore @ 5am

Still power in D7. Has not changed since 6pm from ice pellets,long night but far from an '82 yet...

The Temple Bar Webcam went down at the same time as the reports from Ringsend/IFSC

Looks like a really major blackout in the city

I'm in Dublin 13, Donaghmede/Baldoyle/Clongriffin general area.

No power cut.... yet for me.

I meant what you saw as lightning was probably power grid related.

Oh I remember those days, you'll have a heart warming story for the grandkids...

My boy's 17 now, he was out making a snowman with his dog earlier today....

I called it rain earlier. I was wrong and I admit that now. Dublin 18 is under a lot of snow. A lot

Pup's...

I bet they're from lovers walk lol

BLIZZARD7

Power flicked off here in D14 for about 10 seconds, back on now though.

This is why people wanted so much bread and milk! No cooking required, throw a slice of cheese and/or ham on buttered bread (+Taytos) and a glass of milk. Sure you'd be able to climb Croagh Patrick after that!

I was clever though, I got extra Weetabix and loverly yogurts too. Sorted. I will not starve if the power goes.

Have a little battery radio too for the apocalyptic news, and some torches, powerbanks etc.

I am so organised that I probably won't need any of it!

Hope you will all be ok out there.

A power cut has just happened in Blackrock in Dublin in the past 5 minutes. Inside & outside everything is gone. This is in the Netownpark Avenue area.

As is the Temple Bar camera - this is not a drill!

So, is there any sign of a storm anywhere in the country? Doesn't seem so.

Yup, all balmy and spring-like, it's like Barbados here in D15.
