The 6 in a row Dublin county border will protect us

the tension mounts!

The radar is looking promising for those in Greater Dublin at the moment but still a close call

First glimpse of winter snow in the Banbridge/Newry area, heavy while it lasted, band moving SSE

Kermit.de.frog

The snow line has risen quite dramatically across most of Ulster and north Connaught at this stage.

Gonzo

a mix of rain, sleet and wet snow now at Dunshaughlin, making everything cold and wet.

John.Icy

Should definitely be some snow about in Dublin. Seeing heavy snow in Dundalk, as low lying as you can get. Could be a brief affair however.

Gonzo

getting heavier now but turning back to mostly rain quiet quickly.

Pretzill

What was snow showers turned to hail and then sleet and now we have thunder and lightening!

Europe is having it very bad in general. Friends of mine in Sweden and Norway said they have hardly a flake after a very mild winter last year too. Mostly rain which is so strange for them. Germany etc also have a second consecutive woeful winter. Only Scottish highlands seeing anything in this part of the world.

This is torture seeing snow in other parts of the country and no snow here. I thought I saw some clouds coming but it's mostly clear again

Gonzo

cold rain here in Meath, the sleety snow at the start only lasted 5 minutes before reverting to plain old rain.

cnocbui

Snow sticking after the last shower 40 or so minutes ago.

Snowing with us in Louth, close to the coast between Dundalk and Drogheda. Didn’t think we would see snow.

Humberto Salazar

Temperature dropped to 0.3 earlier this evening before the brief snow interlude around 6.now its nearly 2 degrees with a windchill of - 1. Can only expect sleety rain from the next batch.

Slashermcguirk

2 degrees in Dublin so there should be decent chance of snow if precipitation arrives. Especially if it’s snowing in Louth

DOCARCH

Some sleety rain now in Dublin 16.
