    Well a small change to the breakdown could lead to some nice snowfall for a time before mild winds over.

    Or a dramatic late reversal whereby the cold block just stands its ground and sends the mild air packing, resulting in the east getting a situation like 1982. It would be nice if the weather could somehow defy the technological advances since then in forecasting, by delivering a surprise like that!

    Looking at the maps here, I think chances are very slim.

    people are plucking at straws,there will be snow until the Atlantic break down.Even then snow can't be promised and most likely will be in upland areas of the north and east before turning back to rain.Usually when we get snow it happens at the beginning of the cold spell or after a few nights frost,this episode of cold weather won't deliver anything worth talking about.perhaps later in the month we might get something more active

    Would I be right in saying that according to those models Sunday holds the best chance of any sort of South Easterly percip?

    If we can't have snow, at least dry is second best. I'd be really annoyed if I got up tomorrow to light drizzle :)

    I think this implies rain all over Ireland on Saturday @ 1pm, but as its 96hrs ahead it might not be that accurate.

    lads glass half full please..at least things are moving slightly west even if the atlantic and azores high looks like it will push the cold back. the changes though small are in the right direction and a few hundred miles further can make huge differences. all is not yet lost and we have seen the atlantic before take last minutes dives away from us.

    The Azores high really is the killer most of the winter, and when we want it during the summer it will be no where to be seen.

    yeah it is certainly a killjoy but am a little heartened by the latest UK Met Office update - just shows despite the models showing a raging atlantic blasting through its not 100% by any means. after all this is only tuesday.
    Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

    Remaining cold at first, with widespread overnight frosts and a few snow showers in the east. Probably becoming more unsettled on Saturday, with rain and snow spreading from the west.

    Yes they do:

    "It will become very cold tonight with widespread frost and icy patches forming. A few hail showers or snow flurries are likely near Irish Sea coasts"

    Likely being the important word, Current temp of 4c here and a dew point -2.1c, So you never know, Some people might get lucky with a light shower. Would be nice to see as i haven't even seen a single flake so far this winter.

    very interesting and if the cold could push further west we could be the battleground. the met office in the uk are not ruling out the atlantic being pushed back.

    Nothing showing up in the Irish sea on http://www.raintoday.co.uk/ yet, it's very chilly in D4 now with a sea breeze, if something shows up it'll be white :)
