    did it start off as snow there?

    No, it went from rain to graupel and then snow.

    Whatever snow/precipitation falls today in East and North leinster will be of snow. It is still freezing here in west dublin. - 2 in Csatleknock. However I feel that once again there will be rain for the South of the country..Cork, Waterford, Kerry, Clare and Limerick area although the prcipitation might not even get down that far judging by the radar.

    erratum: whatever PRECIPITATION not snow...

    We had about 30m of lashing, 100% pure old fashioned atlantic rain here in Galway city, thankfully it has stopped now (more or less). No ppt is better than any rain.

    Just snow now in Cavan.

    30m? surely you mean 3cm?

    Just heard it's snowing 'really badly' in Antrim town. Also BBC NI reporting heavy snow in around Derry.
    Dark clouds are starting to gather over Belfast.
    Waiting patiently now.

    I never imagined this would be an enigma to anyone :D

    OH has reported it is lashing rain in Strokestown in Roscommon at present


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 245 ✭✭Figuramatyi


    That thin southern line of precipitation is all 100% rain.
    A new patch appeared in NW of lake Corrib, around Leenane, I am hoping that it might have a little sleet, or maybe even mixed snow. It's movement direction is much less westernly than that of the first ppt band, it looks to move rather from the north now. We shall see!

    Where abouts in Cavan are you? Hope it reaches where I am soon. I am working in the town.

    Does that mean we will be getting snow in Kilkenny today? :(

    Not sure when exactly it starts, after dark, during the night and for a time tomorrow morning.

    apparently 30m means 30 mintues now! Which is confusing cos i just measured our living room floor in mintues last night!

    about time we got some proper snow this winter!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 392 ✭✭PFL


    It has started to slacken off here now still a few flakes falling but has turned the area from no snow / little ice to a white winter wonderland.

    I spoke to a colleague in Leenane about that time, he said it was lashing rain! :(
