    It's so bloody close - I can not only hear but feel the thunder. Maybe. It's unlikely though. I hope so. It would give a good base for later on.


    BTW who is staying up for obs? Im gonna be up.

    Watch the main band of snow over Britain - it's intact and should gain over the Irish Sea due to instability created by the cold temperatures over warm water. Much the same reason for the continuos lightning off the Dublin coast.

    You have more chance of being correct when you say it wont happen all the time ,especially on our little rock, sometimes I swear su is actually Gerry murphy ,

    Problem is when he does his nay saying he backs it with very interesting info , so in a way I love and hate his posts :D

    I'd just like to say that my earlier comments were well wide of the mark, I did not expect such a comprehensive effect produced by a relatively small wind direction change for dublin. My idea behind the trough in scotland looks like it will indeed come to fruition after 6am though, so it's not all bad:)

    And in payment for a bad forecast, I've been woken up by thunder. :D Timing looks like it's within a km of me and I'm near Merrion Square.

    Wow ! I not too far from the Phoenix Park and have awoken to a blanket of snow , beautiful and a great surprise!

    I understand from recent posts, that Dublin is due to get more snow showers beweeen 8am-11am. However I note that the temperature now (at 6.30am) has increased to +1oC. But the dew point is -1oC....we should still be ok for snow then ? :D

    Congrats to all in the east who got their snow.. long may it continue though i notice temps are on the rise there now. Still showing minus temps here in Donegal Town. Looking at the radar on raintoday and met.ie we didnt have any percipition here during the night. Currently watching clouds banks about 100km north of malin head and hoping that they continue on their present course which would bring them to my front door.

    :)

    7.52am - I can just confirm that heavy graupel along with thunder and lightening has just commenced in the Dublin area. Very impressive however its settling car alarms off.

    Are the temps dropping as the showers coming in ?

    Why isn't rain falling in Dublin ?

    Still snowing here. The forecast winds looks like it will still have a good track of land to cross before it reaches here at wont be straight on like in bray due to the direction, hopefully won't rise the temp by that much, still below 0 here. Well, heres hoping!:rolleyes:
