    Is all that precipitation over Meath/Louth still light graupel? It seems to be pretty persistent stuff, so is it sticking there or is it meaningless?
    It's non-existent from what I've been told.

    Does this new-fangled Working From Home lark sound the death knell for ‘Snow Days? Damn you (again) Covid.

    It's the bally ballyness of it that makes it all seem so bally bally.

    If it makes you feel better it has entirely stopped again outside my window, but hopefully it bodes well for more to come :)

    That was a bitter cold walk on the beach - Louth coast. Grapple shooting sideways in to the face like standing in front of a dart board at the Alipally.

    Clouds look like they really want to empty snow from them but nothing

    So jelious that Dublin is getting lashed out of it with snow, zilch here in Carrick on Shannon, although some approaching showers are heading across the country towards me

    So far, to use the coin method of measuring snow depth, turn the coin flat and use its thickness (2.3 mm) as a reference!

    and i'm back under the IOM shadow. Lots of hail/snow showers 5 miles to my north and the Irish sea looking rather empty to my east. The shower train seems to be tracking further north as well looking at the radar on netweather.

    edit: a shower has just appeared out of nowhere near the Meath coastline between Donabate and Balbriggan which may get to here.
