Snow watch II:Snow Harder

billy the squid

at least you have clouds. just back from the 24-hour, and it is freeeeeeeeeezing but no breeze or ice or clouds or nothing.

would have been a good night for stargazing though, there were cloudiness earlier but all gone now. sorry cant type my fingers are frozen solid.

Gonzo

omfg, just woken up and there has to be at least 3 to 4 inchs of snow lying outside:) I havent seen a sight like this in about 12 years

its stopped snowing now but i reckon once day breaks it will thaw extremely fast, i have to make my way to college now into town, hopefully there might still be snow here by the time i get home.

billy the squid

yeah its lousy, all they are doing is driving all over it.

Villain

Tullow has 2 inches of snow!!!!

I'm going to try and drive but doubt I'll get anywhere, best snow fall in years!!!!

ninebeanrows

Never again i tells u tonite has taught me something :mad:

Villain

Oh and it's still snowing here.

ninebeanrows

Dont get me wrong lads im delighted for ye..
Just typical that it managed to stay dry all night here :mad:

Really feel like crap!

billy the squid

wouldnt worry about it, you were expecting a repeat of 1963 these things happen. didnt you get snow last night, i havent seen any.

Never again i tells u tonite has taught me something :mad:

1. Epiphany
1. A Christian feast celebrating the manifestation of the divine nature of Jesus to the Gentiles as represented by the Magi.
2. January 6, on which this feast is traditionally observed.
2. A revelatory manifestation of a divine being.
3.
1. A sudden manifestation of the essence or meaning of something.
2. A comprehension or perception of reality by means of a sudden intuitive realization: “I experienced an epiphany, a spiritual flash that would change the way I viewed myself” (Frank Maier).

ninebeanrows

I was expecting no 63'.
Anyways theres more where the snow that people have got
today coming your way during the day and a cold front will
approach from 1500hrs. Temperatures wont get above 3c today

billy the squid

see it aint all bad.

billy the squid

tell you what though the people who run that premium rate weather call phone number are loosing their money by the minute. have had their webcam streem running for the past two hours.

Villain

Well I went 2 miles and gave up, no way was I going to drive 50 miles this morning, the roads are snow white and very very dangerous.

There was a decent shower here for the last 30 minutes stopped now but there at least 2 inches here, on the lawn there even be 2 and a half.

Weathercheck I wouldn't give up yet tonight could bring a surprise.

ninebeanrows

Well a brief hail shower really capped of the night and morning
like a punch in the face after being tortured for days..

Chin up for me anyway and i'm jealous of those lucky people
who will wake up to a fair dollop expecially in North Dublin
and Meath

More showers through the morning and then as i mentioned the cold front
towards afternoon

Villain

But there won't be enough cloud cover to stop the thaw will there?

Oh and what do you expect that cold front to bring?

ninebeanrows

Well latest satellite and radar imagery of the cold front
that it is very very active although it will dy over the
pennines in England and then have to reinvigore over the
Irish sea so dotn really know. Really want a heavy snow shower
to give me an excuse for no school

Development of the cold front could be very stark
and is now, the development of a polar low
of sorts is possible
