    Belting down in Bray now!!

    Snow grains in Maynooth for the past 20 minutes, fairly light so not amounting to much but not melting on contact with the ground so encouraging for showers later sticking from the get go

    "graupel" that's my word for the day , I'd have had to phone a friend on that one.

    A belief in gender identity involves a level of faith as there is nothing tangible to prove its existence which, as something divorced from the physical body, is similar to the idea of a soul. - Colette Colfer

    Ok it’s coming down now in d’batter and it means business. Much bigger like hail but it’s sticking.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 319 ✭✭spoonerhead


    Snizzle and sizzle last few minutes in Crumlin, think it was Snoop dog playing.

    In this weather they are just carrying their coffees around to keep their delicate hands warm.

    Smashing day here in Clare, bit chilly but great sunshine and dry for a change! Much and all as I love snow I'd much rather if it stayed this way!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 881 ✭✭✭JosDel


    snowing again the the city


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,489 ✭✭✭✭JCX BXC


    That rain and possibly sleet the Eagle forecasted wasn't very accurate ;)

    I recon that the first event i.e. snow showers late Tuesday to Wednesday will be a non event in Dublin. Just does not seem to be the moisture there. I could of course be wrong but it does seem a little ramped up!!.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,850 ✭✭✭Calibos


    This Windmap will show you why Dublin/Wicklow is getting showers all morning despite the wind seemingly coming from the NE which should put us in the IOM snow shadow.

    3hr met precip charts would disagree, never mind the fact we are relying on convective showers that haven't even formed yet...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,489 ✭✭✭✭JCX BXC


    Snow showers in the forecast for Shannon airport from 7am tomorrow morning, no prob 30 or 40 attached!

    Bring it on ;)

    It’s an evening event, what we are getting now was supposed to be rain

    Can’t see this being too much of an issue. I spent two winters in Calgary, Canada. Now that was proper snow and cold weather. Up to a metre of snow, and temperatures down to -25. It didn’t stop me walking home from the pub with 10 pints of strong lager inside me. Think some folks here are getting into Bear Grylls mode – getting off on the idea of power cuts, self-sufficieny, food shortages, the country grinding to a halt, and all that sort of thing. I’ll be working every day this week, and my staff will be too.

    You sound like such a reasonable person to work for/with....your colleagues are truly blessed

    Hail/sleet mix in Ringsend. Has blown through for now

    A question for the more learned contributors here: if a RED alert is going to be issued, when would that likely be??

    Be surprised if it was wasn't issued this evening
