looks like the wind has changed a bit from yesterday but the shadow of the IOM is still cursing some of Dublin again, but north Co. Dublin appears to be getting a bit of a pounding at last.

Just thinking there, what are the chances of flooding problems once the thaw does set in? There's a weeks worth of snow sitting in some areas.

View from my house

Snow still going strong

John Mason

chucking it down on Holles Street.

I really cant do the 7 mile walk home again tonight - any idea if the temp. is due to drop to freezing this afternoon

Oasis_Dublin

Reasonably sunny here now. There was a show shower at about 1015 which lasted 15 minutes and was quite heavy. This sun might make is slushy out there though

HoPpiE

Horizontal snow fall in the D2/D4 area.

Someone said last night that an inch of rain is the same as about a foot of snow, i.e. we should be ok, particularly when the snow would melt over a couple of days.

getting a pounding in Dublin 5!

I think that whatever goes on in your own bedroom should be kept to yourself, I'm not sure why you saw fit to put it on the weather forum. Disgraceful.

Bluefrog

Temps holding steady at 0 here with a heavy snowshower - was sunny 5 mins ago.

Fitzo

Galway to get hit tonight? Maybe?

More pretty heavy snow in Clontarf.

Anyone know what its like our round Donabate/Malahide? Need to make a decision later on about what to leave the office.

token56

no snow here at the moment but maynooth seems to be back in the path of the streamers so hopefully there will be a bit more throughout the day

réaltóg

Blue sky to heavy snow in less than 10 mins in D2 Wooooooo!

Iancar29

A good bit falling now here in finglas !

mrsdewinter

Weird. Still snowing here in south D15, but now the flakes - and they are flakes, not graupel - are much finer... significant?
