Really snowing heavily now in Wicklow Town. I'd say around 12cm so far with no sign of letting up, going by the radar!
Flakes are getting bigger too...

Pretty meager snowfall in D2 overnight. Anywhere I can walk to to see some proper unforgettable stuff?

Whehey!

Has the red warning actually been lifted or is it just the updating?

If you look at Hirlam from now to 12 heavier snow outbreaks in Cork. Here not too heavy but steady near Mallow.

The warning was there for blizzard conditions with strong winds and low visibility, there's nothing inherintely dangerous about being outside in just heavy snow.

Did anyone hear the news on RTE radio just now? It was reported that a young boy and his father had a bad accident in the snow last night in Mayfield, which is where I am

Hope the video works.

Co. Longford. No snow coming down, but wind has cleared all trees of snow.

I have a wedding today. I don't know how I'm going to get to it

I guess just like politics all weather is local. Listening to national radio telling us the worst has passed and I look outside and if anything the snow showers are getting stronger here in South East Wexford.

Probably more in the south of the city but I doubt anything within walking distance that'll make you say wow to the difference

It's the most snow I've seen since 1982 here in Celbridge. Beats 2010 hands down. Drifts 2-3 feet

Yeah I saw something online about it. The son has a very bad neck injury apparently. Very sad.

Wow great to see some pics like that so people realise what has actually happened in places. Problem the best we have seen yet.

Worst than 2010?
In nutgrove Dublin, absolutely

Barely any snowfall in dublin city centre it seems. With some melting going on too.

Decent snow in Wicklow though

has the worst still hit here in dublin or... is this still not fully it?

Slight but steady snowing in north Cork near mallow. Looks like 10 to 15cm accumulation. Flakes are getting bigger now.

God that’s awful, I think he’s very badly injured. Wonder where that was in Mayfield.

The storm has stalled and it looks like we will be getting this kind of fairly low intensity snowfall for the rest of the day

That's insane! You're only about 12k east of where I am. We've about 2-3 foot drifts on walls and the roads and fields about 6in.

Ironic that they withdraw the stay indoors warning when the worst is actually here now? North Offaly.

Still snowing here in tipp, only about 10cm of new snow since yesterday, however there are drifts of at least 30cm in places. Precipitation looks to be getting going now.

It is red level here.
The wind has been picking up giving whiteout conditions in the stronger gusts, and the snow intensity has increased. The severity here on the hills north east of Kilkenny has definitely picked up in the last half hour.

North kk near Ballyragget do you think there is much more to come here Robert
