We had around 4 to 6 inches in Athlone overnight. Well between 1am and 8am while I was asleep. It was snowing when I got up and it stopped for a while. Now it's coming down heavy again with bigger flakes. My basic outdoor temperature probe says +1.1.
Going to try driving to work now. Not too far to go.

and stopped again. Its just teasing us now

Nice covering of snow around Claregalway outside the city. Was fairly heavy an hour and a half ago but there are patches of blue sky in the city now. Fairly breezy too and i'd say there'll be a thaw - nowhere near as cold as last few days but that could be down to my under-armour!

Fiana Fail have just announced that the sequel to " Snow White and the seven dwarfs" has been canceled because Dopey spent all our money but with the current weather conditions they are pleased to announce that sequel to " The Day after Tomorrow" is on the way !

Remember folks. The cold air is on it's way. Potentially we're in the calm before the storm. Literally.

So much for met eireann getting it wrong eh?

The nature of showers is that some people get hit, others don't. That's life!

This will be real radar and sky watching day.

Hey Maq

What time does the 06z GFS roll out ?

Looking at the 00z it looks like the cold air is here by 12 with colder air in behind it at 18:00

Snow risk at 18:00:

Just had a small snow shower here. We seem to be about 15 minutes behind Waterford city.

davehey79

would any of the weather guys ( geniuses in my book ) be able to interpret the radars / maps etc. and give a possibility of snow for Longford/Roscommon today or am i just hoping in vain a slight dusting last night is all we got

Mental Mickey

Was extremely slippy coming out of my estate in Palmerstown this morning. Taxi was sliding all over the place.

Everything is a bit slow but i was out at 7 down to Blanchardstown Village and it was fine. Navan road fine. Think things are worse on the southside but check dublincity fm

Just cant seem to get going in Waterford City. Just little light flurries and yes the temps are rising 0c DP -0.7c, still ok but going up which is a worry.
