    Couple of heavy snow showers this afternoon in north-east county Galway, about half an inch or so fell. Very large flakes, the real thing. We've already had more than all of last winter around here :D

    Driving home from Galway city earlier, only sleet for around 20 miles, then suddenly I hit a white out, made driving quiet difficult.

    A few more showers tonight and if it freezes later on, the roads will be lethal.

    Nice one, nothing like that here yet.

    Just looked outside and everythings frozen here now, wasnt like that for the last shower half an hour ago and raintoday has a nice looking shower due any minute so hopefully this could be the one!

    Edit: Sticking!!

    The last shower here was graupel for the first 5 minutes then changed to really heavy snow. The graupel sticks better so its a good base for the snow!

    No shower here now in a while, still about half an hour away judging by raintoday and the stuff from the last one has melted again in places but its sticking in other places and the footpaths and roofs are all white. Hopfully gets the chance to freeze now with the clear skies

    In the centre, around Navan

    Snow came down directly from the north


    I'm just keeping an eye on the snow with http://www.met.ie/latest/rainfall_radar.asp
    but there isn't going to be anymore for a while
