    How come the radar on accuweather and yr.no show completely different areas of precipitation to met.ie radar?

    (I'm too lazy to get up and just look out the window)

    Was only just thinking the same thing. Looks to me like the met.ie radar covers precip more comprehensively, the nw radar has me clear overhead atm and it’s muntering down here. I don’t like waiting 15 mins for updates though...I want my updates NOW!!

    While we are all excited, Croatia, that I visit regularly, was badly hit.

    182 cm record snowfall. That is some record and I hope we won't get anywhere near that!

    20cm will do.

    I want 183.

    In a town with 5-6k population, evacuated later as they couldn't cope.

    Not a village on top of the world.

    ME:
    Blizzards will continue tonight. Severe thunderstorms could affect large areas of Munster and coastal areas of Leinster. Temperatures will be as low as minus 4 degrees and there'll be strong to gale force northeast winds.

    No idea if the Dark Sky app is well-regarded but what is the possibility that this could be true, that if it’s above freezing tomorrow evening, we could get rain instead of snow? :eek:

    So weird seeing the conditions nationwide, there's barely been a flake of snow in Killarney yet. Even now it's a perfectly clear night, albeit bitterly cold.

    This is not about what it is, but what it can be I think.

    No point in declaring red alert after.

    No, that’s for tomorrow, the screenshot. Showing rain from around 10pm tomorrow to 1am Friday.

    Tomorrow is Friday. This is Thursday:confused:

    Anyway that's unlikely by that stage but not impossible. Gale force wind off the sea is not often conducive to snow in coastal areas.

    For the love of jaysus, it’s overnight, I’m still thinking Wednesday.

    And if there was any confusion, you can see that it’s referring to Thursday: the time at the top says ‘Now’ and works through the next eighteen hours or so, which is mostly Thursday, with a bit of Friday at the end. You were really confused by this? I wasn’t expecting to have to spoonfeed!
