Severe Winter Weather, Snow/Ice - Sun 25th Feb (Onwards) ** READ MOD NOTE POST #1 **

Still clear here in North Wexford like earlier, clouds still few and far between in the Anglesey shadow. There's a very light dusting of snow sticking on the ground that's been there for a couple of hours that will probably be treacherous come the morning due to the freeze.

Really hope your right kermit. Brief shower in bray enough for a light dusting so hoping for more by morning

Ditto. Roof starting to get a white dusting but nothing on the roads/paths yet. Its not even graupel though. Still that snow/ice grain sh*te. Wheres me snow flakes as big as dinner plates I keep hearing about!!

I'm starting to get worried that I'll wake in the morning, Open the Velux and pop me head out and exclaim, "FFS, you've got to be kidding me!".....and not in a good way

Gaoth is excellent. But if i recall correctly had an anxious couple of hours early on 10th December when he felt the predicted snowfall would only be rain. Then the charts moved from green to red throughout much of the country.

I'm hoping Gaoth is just a bit anxious about it all:)

He has excellent knowledge, but he is not infallible, that said this easterly is a poor one overall in the South East of England given the mouth watering parameters involved. I travel daily from North West London to South West London and the most snow i saw today was an inch near Ealing . Also showers have been brief, very localised and well scattered. Yes, there has been more organised snow to the East and South East of London, but if this was an event to rival February 1991, there would be more than the slight dusting where I live( which is 250 foot above sea level) and where I work. Given the instability, i was expecting 5- 10 cms where I live.
Still if you live in places like Kent and the North East of England you will be happy.

ps: The most impressive thing as i made the commute today was the temperature struggled to get above a zero. That's rare for London.

Reports of thunder in parts of Kildare?

Thunder and lightning in North Wicklow

10km north of Kilcock and nothing falling despite Netweather saying otherwise for last 15 minutes!

North and westside of Dublin in particular in the firing line again in the next half hour. Streamer lining up.

Moderate snow at Grange now.

This is going to be a long night for me!

Quite an impressive rap there about 10 minutes ago here on the Kildare Meath border.
But nothing since.
