Heavy snow: Early Tomorrow across much of the North and East.

Just started this thread as i feel that the Met.ie forecast is totally inadequate( for tomorrow) as it doesn't even mention sleet or snow at all: While the situation is quite marginal there is a very good chance of 3-4 hours of heavy snow tomorrow across middle and north leinster and much of eastern and central ulster.

Tis rain here, with a DP of 2.1°C I would have thought you'd need to go to about 450 metres or so to get to snow today.
You sure you are not seeing melting hail there AT ?

Was definitely sleet (you know the large slow moving flakes, mixed with rain?) but turned back to rain now. Temp has dropped to 3.1c

Fair enough, skies do have that brownish tint again this morning which means snow close by.

Miserable altogether here with that gusty wind and lots of fast passing rain showers.
Wind would cut you!

We've 5.8c here in gusts to nearly 30mph
DP is 1.7c and falling.

To be honest with that maths,snow above 2500ft or at times lower but above 1800ft wouldnt surprise me.

Fairly cruddy alright. Was around 6c when I woke up this morning with a dp of around 3 but the temp had dropped to 5.3 when I was leaving the house. I think today is just a dull, crap day. Wish that area of light precip we're getting from the east would push off. Windy but sunny would be preferable!
