Sticking to grass and cars out there. Moderate enough fall. +1.1c and -0.1cDP. Winds hovering between NW and NE 6mph gusting 12mph.

Snow on car tops in Castletroy, Limerick. Light snow falling

highdef · 22-03-2017 03:45AM

Can't sleep! Snow still coming down at a decent pace and sticking everywhere now. 0.2c and all continues to slowly fall. Roads shall be interesting in the morning. More precip building around Wicklow and moving Northwest

endacl · 22-03-2017 03:52AM

Delightfully rainy in firhouse. Not a sign of the white pox.

Danno · 22-03-2017 03:56AM

Hammering it down... everywhere white with about 2cm on the grass. 0.6c with a -0.4cDP.

highdef · 22-03-2017 04:24AM

Last post tonight. Snow continues to fall and accumulate on all surfaces. Recently went sub zero. Renewed heavy snow pushing Northwest from Wicklow to Kildare and maybe parts of south Dublin

tiegan · 22-03-2017 05:28AM

Snowing hard in Fethard Co Tipp. Huge Flakes!!!

horsefarm · 22-03-2017 06:54AM

Very heavy rain hammering against the window S.Dub 260m. Kids will be devo

Latest guidance suggests this may begin to extend further west during the day, so will be adding Cork, Limerick and south Clare to the alert. Low pressure will continue to drift around near the southeast coast but will also form a secondary centre to the south of Cork. This has potential to be quite heavy inland at any elevation. The trend may weaken for central Leinster while picking up in Munster.

LEIN · 22-03-2017 07:21AM

Nothing but heavy rain here.

4.4C

stephenjmcd · 22-03-2017 07:26AM

Nothing but rain in Dublin

RobertKK · 22-03-2017 07:35AM

Heaviest snowfall in years, but that wouldn't be hard in north east Kilkenny.
Haven't measured as I have not yet ventured out.

sparkledrum · 22-03-2017 07:37AM

Not a drop of snow in Cork city

Lucreto · 22-03-2017 07:39AM

1.2C in Naas and rain.

screamer · 22-03-2017 07:57AM

3 to 4 inches of heavy wet snow lying here North Kilkenny laois border. Travelling on back roads impossible and tree branches down too.

sunbabe08 · 22-03-2017 08:04AM

snow falling in cork city:eek::eek:

Ludo · 22-03-2017 08:06AM

Yep...snow falling nicely in Bishopstown, Cork. Not a chance of it sticking though thankfully.

An Ri rua · 22-03-2017 08:12AM

Yes, heavy snow in Mountmellick. Slieve Bloom effect no doubt. I would imagine 2 inches of wet snow. And falling heavily now too.
I imagine unnecessary long commutes are, well, unnecessary.

CrowdedHouse · 22-03-2017 08:17AM

Buried in snow near Roscrea... well 5cm on the roof of the car, still snowing.

Big fluffy flakes Cork City! Don't know why I wasn't expecting this! :-O

Oafley Jones · 22-03-2017 08:22AM

Fairly heavy just out side Whitechurch in Cork. Sticking too. But we're 400m asl iirc.

Graces7 · 22-03-2017 08:22AM

Blissfully bare mountains out here in West Connemara. A slight scraping of frost atop the highest peaks and a wind that would scorch the skin off you with its icy blast. SHIVERS! Even the dog is not happy out there

'Tis snowing alright in cork and I've cousins out Whitchurch way. They always used to get snow better than us city folk.

Darwin · 22-03-2017 08:29AM

Blizzard like conditions west laois but not really settling.

Gaoth Laidir · 22-03-2017 08:31AM

Cork is the only airport to have a snow "warning" (even if for <1 cm) this morning. Wind warnings for Dublin too.

infogiver · 22-03-2017 08:36AM

Snowing heavily in Thurles with an accumulation of about 3 inches so far. Treacherous roads

JCX BXC · 22-03-2017 08:42AM

3.9c and rising here in West Clare this morning, so I won't be taking much notice of MT's forecast

I wonder did anywhere get even marginally close to ME's forecast of -3/-4 last night?

JCX BXC · 22-03-2017 08:46AM

Snowing in Cork and 0c at 7:30
