Actually got a decent 1-2cms off that heavy small flaked snow, dry as powder stuff.

The showers died quickly partly because the land is so dry in the area and intensely cold.

Not

Ye, they're forming, but look at the min that they're headin for the North

Further south I think the width of the UK land mass is drying out the air too much. There is some slight bubbling up just before the South Dublin and Wicklow coasts, but not substantial enough for any resulting showers to make it inland.

I am not making the snow or delivering it. just looked at various radar

This system is so slow moving that it has potential to drop a load on UCC. Unless you are in CIT, in which case it will be rain mostly

No,it's UCC and I have an exam tomorrow

minus 1.2c at present in Sligo

A strange sort of a day. The temperature only got to a max of minus 0.4c today after tipping minus 4 last night.

However this evening after tipping minus 2.6c the wind has picked up slightly and we are back at minus 1.2c.

I see it is 5c in Costa Del Malin Head

Same here. Is this a cruel trick by the radar guy at Met Eireann?

I'm gonna call it quits if it doesn't improve / restart in 5 mins.

I'm right under that and haven't seen a single snowflake. I reckon its very light powdery snow and not reaching the ground at 15m asl. Seems to be reaching the hills in the surrounding areas though.

Anything expected on meath coast anytime soon (Bettystown)?

We finally got our first snow today, but from all differant radars doesnt look like there is any forecasted at least for the next 6 hours anyways ! !
