sustained moderate to heavy snow here in finglas for over the past hour straight. was stopping and starting earlier in the evening.

Clear sky overhead now here but I'd be pretty optimistic that there is more on the way in the next half hour...

Yes i think i prefer the Corkford - that way Cork is more dominant cos it comes first!:D

Think I might have to go to bed now knowing I've learnt a piece of new vital information

I was always told the Atlantic Ocean influences Ireland's weather. Oh no no no no no...The Irish Sea does * :D

i think it will be for those of us futher west and north- well the precipitation was always going to be lighter in these regions, but going on that bbc forecast the snowfall tomorrow is going to be light everywhere bar high ground. so it definitely seems that yet again the unexpected very heavy snowfall tonight in the east will deliver more accumulations than tomorrows snow will. still for those in the east who don't want anymore lieing snow that'll be welcome news i guess

Are you sure nacho? Watched the forecast after the 10.10pm BBC1 news tonight and it seemed to indicate significant snow for the northeast in particular (Meath, Louth, Monaghan etc.) from Sunday evening going into Monday morning.

Absolutely bucketing down in clondalkin (d22) at least 4 inches now. 2 inches fresh stuff I'd say in the last hour and a bit

Ya i don't think it is the same one cos i think Snowstor said that the one on tv yer man mentioned lots of snow for ireland or something but he said nothing on the web one and it was the same guy but it still looked good

Yes, and we could have had a lot more here if it hadnt been blowing straight over most of the evening.

Great! The way I see it is that those who saw the lightning are looking at the snow and not looking at a screen!
Time to log off and get lamp post watching again!
