I'm here, but there is nothing falling yet, and not expecting any for the next 15-20m. Maybe then.

still no more snow in navan, but the brass monkeys are shivering!


F5 to refresh image

just wish i had something a little more exciting to show on the webcam.

and no, no stripteases, not that you'd want to see that anyway!

EDIT: moved it to show under the street lamp anyway so you might see the snow when (if ever) it comes.

For the last 20 min or so Trogs weather station is showing a drop of .1c every 2-3 min. Thats like MAD ! so lets say every 20 min it drops a degree, by 7 am we should be at like -21 or something :D:D:D

I looked outside. No flakes yet, but it SMELLS snowy - the unmistakable smell you feel before snowing.
Not sure you can identify that as snow was not supposed to be so common here, but in my country we usually have it every winter (many times), so I know this one since my childhood

What about Tralee guys? Will it snow?

its a wait and see, hard to say,.

hot buttered scones

Cork City (northside) - still a clear sky here, can see the stars. Went out and checked the temperature -4.5 deg. Hoping for snow later on. The dusting we got on Tuesday was just a tease.

Is there anywhere that got no snow so far ??
Here in Dublin playing there waiting game for some more

pokerface_me

Just wondering how things are looking for the Dublin mountains tomorrow, we have 3 feet 6 inches of snow on the foothills in Tallaght, up to 5 feet against walls and houses. Sally GAp has 7 feet with drifts.

We really could do with a bit more snow:D

Yep sig doesn't get updated as quick

I meant the sig was updated to -12.4 but the post said -11!

I love the way on your site it says -13.8: feels like -14. How many people know what -14 feels like!!! :P

And even funnier is the forecast: Tonight min -7. Scroll up Temp -14.

With the temps and dew points staying so low, how could this stuff fall as anything but snow the whole way across the country?

I was thinking the same thing, would hardly rise that much to cause anything but snow.
