We've had more or less non stop snow now since Wednesday evening.

Absolutely unreal.

Has really picked up again, not the same intensity as this afternoon but moderate. Surreal atmosphere outside

Is 3 degrees during the day enough to melt the snow that has already fallen? If it does warm up tomorrow, what is likely to happen?

There was thaws today in places that were 1 degree with no sun. If theres some sun and 3 degrees and some rain the snow will melt very quickly

Went for a walk a while ago in D11, crazy wind and very deep drifts some cul de sacs completly snowed in with them, up to waist and higher.

Been snowing here all day , good covering this afternoon and getting heavy again, hopefully get a few more hours out of it!

Been the best day here for covering!

I could go on but theres so many...

Apologies, if this has already been asked of the Experts. What is the longest recorded snow fall in Ireland?

My reason for asking is that in my part of the world Dublin 15, it has not stopped snowing since 5:00 pm yesterday afternoon.

Lashing snow in north wex
Very deep now, hard to walk in
Drifts are incredibly deep
Snow is 6ft and my back patio doors
I expect it to be completely covered by morning
I've never seen anything like this

Snow accumulating a wee bit again this evening here near Tralee, about 1cm settled since dark.

-0.3C atm
Dp -1.9C

Been so quite the last two days, little or no wind , barely any traffic and the snow absorbing the country sounds. Will be a memorable couple of days.

When is the snow expected to start melting?

Something must be wrong with Casement station. No reports for four hours now. Wonder if it's just an issue uploading data and whether it will be available later.

Windy and very fine dust like snow still in Clondalkin.

Blackglen Rd is closed so the higher up you go the worse it gets ..... I’ve over 50cm’s here 😱

So today in this part of D15 there was a definite thaw til about 3pm. But temps dropped and the light snow flakes have been relentless. About 6cm have fallen since on Flat surfaces. Drifts are up to the top of the front garden wall now. Hard to know how much fell the last three days.

Went for a stroll for a few hours along the canal and out the back roads by luttrellstown castle. The back roads are not cleared at all. Lethal.

Hard to believe its early march.

marno21

30/40 minute snow shower there around 10 in Limerick left enough of a dusting on the roads to slow traffic right down. Very different situation here to the rest of the country.

Hoping to head to Killarney tomorrow afternoon so hopefully some respite is on the way.

Is it? The radar is saying that it should be stopping completely from now.

Probably under attack from Jobstown lads.

Still coming down in D24.
