All that activity in the Irish Sea and we are missing out on most of it :mad:

Yeah not coming anywhere near us. Thankfully says I, it would have made some serious deposits on the ground for sure.

Not that there is much of that in the south west!!! a flake at most I'd say:mad::mad:

Just as well. There is still ice around but that will be gone tomorrow. Snow is nice when you have nothing to do and don't drive a car. Other than that its a pain in the ass that can't disapear fast enough.

First few flakes starting again in Greystones, been quiet all day.

Going through Malahide, snow particularly heavy and sticking. Roads are lethal. Be careful out there.

I'm lost for words, this is just spectacular.

Took a measurement, lucky i placed the ruler in the grass earlier:D

15cm of snow on the grass, an addition of 6cm from this afternoon and falling heavier than ever :D

Greystones roads are fine (apart from Windgaes), Church Road is fine and all through Charelsland up to the N11, but avoid Delgany

Truely epic in Dublin. Snowed all day in Dublin. Most places closed earlier in the IFSC.

Never seen snow like this. Truely epic.

And apparently there is more to come .

Unreal!!

yoji101

That big major cloud that was heading south towards Lucan earlier seemed to shift west at it approached the Liffey, giving Lucan a quick dusting and then that was it for that, maybe Maynooth or Kilcock/Enfield direction benefitted there... Still clouds around though, might pick up some snow from those over the next few hours...

Snow finally letting up here, seeing clear sky, looking at radar it seems like there is a shift of the streamer track south. I wonder if the southside is about to get plastered.

Some amount of snow here in Sandymount.

ninebeanrows

The stream in the North Irish sea is still going strong, but expect winds to veer the showers off no later than midnight, still leaves the possibility of a good few hours snow for Dublin.
