Clear, blue sky, chilling, fierce wind; washing almost all dry... Wonderful to be out in. Dry. Blissfully dry after all the rain and fog and damp.

Dublin has temporary moderate sleet showers from 11pm and a chance of snow showers from 3am-12pm.
Shannon has temporary moderate sleet showers from 6pm and temporary moderate snow showers from 9pm.
Cork has temporary moderate sleet showers from 3am and a chance of moderate snow showers from 4am-10am.
Knock has temporary moderate sleet showers from 6pm and temporary moderate snow showers from 1am.
Overall, Shannon appears to be the most hopeful for snow!
