Snow Ice Warning for Ireland 29 Jan to 03 Feb 2019 *See Mod Note in OP *

not a thing in north kilkenny

Temperatures starting to fall with pace, 1.9c in South Laois

Was in Tallaght today, the Wicklow mtns certainly casting a shadow over the M7. Sleet stopped right on the Laois-Kildare border. Rain in Tallaght until 4pm and as I was leaving a moderate fall of sleet and graupel mixed that started to settle until it stopped. Again, most of the M7 through Kildare was noted for it's absence of precipitation, especially through the road widening zone.

Which radar is best for watching for possibility of snow in Limerick. Small lady is driving me crazy asking will we get some. Thanks a mill!!

Nothing but rain all day in Mallow. Very disappointing 🙠lashing for the past hour.

First time all day there has been sleet/wet snow mixed in with the rain here in Wexford town.

Its amazing how people rely of Facebook/Twitter for pretty much everything. People will believe total strangers cause it's on the internet

Well said. It drives me around the bend, this "it was on the internet/facebook so therefore true".

I live in a rural area where facebook would be the limit of many locals' internet interactions. When I go for a pint I spend so much of the time trying to point out the ridiculousness of people saying in August it's going to be a very bad winter or in January saying it's going to be a scorcher of a summer.

Each time the reply is "But it was on facebook"..😖

Temp staying at 2 degrees for carlow the past while, low clouds and rain absolutely miserable out. Thought we might have seen at least sleet here today given the radars. Still time maybe?

Drop some down to ferns there nothing but fecking rain here

Snow coming down solidly since sundown after a sleety afternoon where the earlier snow never quite melted.

Lost water due to frozen pipe so scraping snow off the car to use for the cisterns. If this makes sense it's sticking on the car at a rate of about 0.5cm every 15 minutes.

312m asl Roundwood

How come my station thinks its 3C? I mean I'm really not far from you, are you more elevated?

Lashing hail now as well. 19mm today so far, Comeragh mountains must be getting a right snowfall this evening. How low will we go? I think we'll stall around 2c, just shy.

Turning to snow here near Dublin airport but still the very wet variety.

that front would need to be an awful lot further south to get the bitter cold. i reckon 2 to minus 2c tonight.
