Click through the last 3/4 hours, that cloud is thickening up and heading our (Dublin/Wicklow) way

sky clouding up nicely here in Dalkey, impressive strikes out at sea and nice rumbles of thunder...thundersnow, anyone?? ps even here on the coast its really frosty and the ground wind is still from the NW (this is good, not much modification from the sea)

Probably around 1:30am-2am, but I wouldn't be sure if the precip gets past the Wicklow Mnts, they could filter it out.

Elsewhere, it would seem now that the hardest stuff will hit Greystones rather than Wicklow.

Thanks for all the updates guys, amazing job. Hopefully we're on track for a bit of snow here in south dublin soon

Oh and by the way, its officially cold enough to leave your beer in the back garden rather than the fridge...10 mins and it was ice cold. Happy days :cool:

Birdnuts

Lightning could be seen from here too - roll on the white wall:D:D

No sign of anything in Wicklow town yet. From looking at the radar.. i would have thought it might have been here already.

maquiladora

Should be looking some reports from Wicklow soon, looking at the latest radar...

I know the feeling pal, I've resorted to a six pack of tuborg...you actually can taste the cheapness!

Nice big wall of white cloud rolling in now, the moon has disappeared Colder than an eskimos testicles outside though, god bless anyone who has to go further than their garden shed.
