    About half a metre in the back garden in Rathdrum - more accumulated than 2010

    In Kilbeggan, not much change since last night. Doesn't look like much snow fell. I feel there is a thaw on. The road has tracks to the tar from where traffic have been passing. Snow that was built up in the corners of windows, etc, is much less this morning and it is much wetter stuff

    Ten mins to get the back door open, shed has a mound of snow just over 3ft deep around it. I'm in Clondalkin, seems to be about 20cm sitting generally everywhere but the drifts are huge. Most snow ive ever seen in my life in this country.

    Waking up disappointed in Drimnagh! No snow fell til about 6am but wasn't a lot.

    I am so envious of you lot with your big snow! It has skipped Rush, the wind is still fairly strong but there was no further snow and the thaw has set in :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33


    A few flurries in Donegal and nothing overnight. And it got a bit breezy too. :( The good news is we can lead the rescue effort for everyone else!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,186 ✭✭✭munsterlegend


    Coming down nicely near Mallow. People's footprints being filled in relatively quickly. Walking in a winter(spring) wonderland..

    11 inches of fresh fall in Celbridge overnight (measured on my car which was fully cleared yesterday at 4). We have 2-3ft drifts in our garden and the main road looks to still be a foot deep. No sign of ploughs yet.

    A simple look at a weather satellite would tell people that not even 50% of this storm has passed over Ireland yet.


  • Registered Users Posts: 998 ✭✭✭dharma200


    Clare.. accumulations like nothin I have ever seen. Really concerned about the thaw now. Employers should be prosecuted for expecting people to move in this.
    Hearing people getting rescued form their cars. Like. Seriously.

    I know the focus is on the East but there are localized parts of the south coast that have been hit particularly bad - constant snow since Tuesday night. There are several feet of drifts around my house. On the flat I’m getting at almost 40cm measurements of snow. I am on a somewhat elevated position near the town of Kinsale. We’ve had horrendous conditions along the coast for days with cars being abandoned and hundreds of houses going without power yesterday but Pascal doesn’t seem to know this part of Cork exists! I’m doing my best to raise awareness here!

    Despite it snowing all day yesterday there was only 1cm of snow on the ground last night. This morning there's about 6 inches on flat ground and 3ft drifts.
    In the picture thats a 4ft wall that has almost completly vanished

    Bit of a thaw setting in Clondalkin


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,778 ✭✭✭✭ninebeanrows


    Very little snow in Dublin City centre- crazy the difference a few miles make.

    Yes Muckalee area and it continues to snow. One can see on the netweather radar how the higher ground around Kilkenny city is getting heavier snow.

    We got some decent snow here north east Kilkenny.

    It's coming down since in town but very light melty flakes although I'm sure some are sticking. I'm not sure whether to wish it away or here at this stage. :D

    I ran down to the main road to get some more pics. This is the main N25 between Waterford and New Ross. I don't know if you can really see in the video but there are MASSIVE drifts across the width of the road, they're so cool but difficult to photograph.

    Didn't see video but wow and there was a car with headlights on... was someone trying to drive on that road? :eek:

    Is that the Rhu Glen?

    12cm from absolutely nothing yesterday. Flattest surface. Drifts are higher. Still falling. About bloody time! Wicklow Town

    That's crazy, where I am in Drimnagh there's nothing like that!

    Just walled down to the end of the paddocks on the farm through waist deep snow
    The drifts at the entrance of the field at 5 feet plus
    The hayshed roof has collapsed
    This has way passed 2010 now and threatening jan 1982
    Blinding blizzard here still near Arklow

    IPhone was at 70% and shut down from the cold when I tried to do a twitter live


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,936 ✭✭✭LEIN


    Snow has gone very light in Greystones.

    Had a lot of wet snow towards the end.


  • Registered Users Posts: 411 ✭✭RoisinD


    Snowng NW Clare (near the coast) Can only remember snow settling once before so really rare here. Wind and rain second nature so I suppose a break from the norm is good

    Not a lot of snow or wind last night here in Cork. Snowing now though, the flakes are small but the snowfall is quiet heavy. If this sustains for the day I imagine there will be a lot of accumulation.

    Really? Up by the airport here and it's practically raining, very little snow over night (well alot less than predicted)


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,516 ✭✭✭Outkast_IRE


    Cork city is snowing heavier now than it has in the past few days. In my estate the road is now indistinguishable from the foothpath so several solid inches on flat areas with drifts higher in others.
